International Desk: The bodies of 20 missing migrants have been found in the Libyan desert. According to rescuers, the group died of thirst in the scorching heat. Local time on Tuesday, the bodies were found lying next to a truck in the middle of the desert, about 320 kilometers from the town of Khufra. A truck driver finds them as they walk through the desert. According to administration sources, the rescue team of the Libyan administration has recovered the bodies. It is believed that the immigrants left in that truck. Rescuers also suspect he came from a neighboring country. Police believe the truck broke down in the middle of the desert, leaving the immigrants stranded. They are believed to have died about 14 days ago. The Libyan administration told Reuters the last call was made from their mobile phone on June 13.
