The sinking of the ship F174 took place on the night of December 25–26, 1996, off the coast of Sicily, in the Mediterranean Sea. An old, severely overloaded wooden ship transporting illegal immigrants from India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan to Italy sank 19 nautical miles, (22 miles; 35 km) from Portopalo di Capo Passero in Sicily (Italy), under questionable circumstances, and came to rest under 108 metres (354 ft) of water. The number of deaths remains unknown, but at least 283 men, women and children perished.

  • In der Nacht vom 25. auf den 26. Dezember 1996 kamen beim Untergang des Bootes F 174 mindestens 283 Migranten aus Indien, Sri Lanka und Pakistan vor Kap Passaro, der Südspitze Siziliens, ums Leben. Beim Versuch von Schmugglern, die Menschen bei stürmischer See mit vorgehaltener Waffe von dem honduranischen Frachter Yiohan auf das kleinere maltesische Boot F 174 überzusetzen, kollidierten die beiden Boote und F 174 sank. Es handelte sich dabei um das größte Schiffsunglück im Mittelmeer in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Der Unfallort wurde jahrelang von den Fischern von Portopalo di Capo Passero geheim gehalten, und die juristische Aufarbeitung dauerte noch Jahre. (de)
  • The sinking of the ship F174 took place on the night of December 25–26, 1996, off the coast of Sicily, in the Mediterranean Sea. An old, severely overloaded wooden ship transporting illegal immigrants from India, Sri Lanka and Pakistan to Italy sank 19 nautical miles, (22 miles; 35 km) from Portopalo di Capo Passero in Sicily (Italy), under questionable circumstances, and came to rest under 108 metres (354 ft) of water. The number of deaths remains unknown, but at least 283 men, women and children perished. This event was, at the time, the worst maritime disaster in the Mediterranean Sea since World War II. It has since been surpassed by several other migrant shipwrecks. The disaster is known in Italy as the Strage di Natale (Christmas massacre) or Portopalo massacre. The fishermen of Portopalo became aware of the disaster when they began to recover human remains and other evidence in their nets. However, they and practically all of the other residents of Portopalo failed to report it to the authorities, fearing that government action would interfere with their livelihood. La Repubblica reporter Giovanni Maria Bellu finally broke the story, leading to much soul searching in Italy over the indifference to the fate of illegal immigrants. (en)
  • Il naufragio della F174 (conosciuto anche come tragedia di Portopalo o strage del Natale 1996) fu un sinistro marittimo avvenuto nella notte tra il 25 e il 26 dicembre 1996 nelle acque internazionali a 19 miglia nautiche (35 km) al largo di Portopalo di Capo Passero, in provincia di Siracusa. Una vecchia nave di legno, gravemente sovraccarica dal trasporto di persone provenienti da India, Pakistan e Sri Lanka affondò, causando la morte di almeno 283 di loro e rappresentò all'epoca la più grande tragedia navale del Mediterraneo dalla fine della seconda guerra mondiale, e rimase tale sino al naufragio di Lampedusa, verificatosi il 3 ottobre 2013. I pescatori di Portopalo si resero conto dell'avvenuto disastro quando, dopo alcuni giorni, iniziarono a recuperare con le proprie reti alcuni resti umani e altri relitti. Tuttavia, temendo che le indagini avrebbero potuto interrompere la pesca (unica fonte di sostentamento della zona), gli abitanti e le autorità di Portopalo non segnalarono i ritrovamenti alla magistratura. Solo a seguito di un'inchiesta giornalistica del 2001, il relitto della nave naufragata venne ritrovato alla profondità di 108 metri nel punto indicato da un pescatore locale pentito. (it)
