The Guardian:
The Red Star 1, a ferry chartered by the International Organization for Migration, had been forced to wait outside Misrata for four days after loyalist troops planted sea mines and pounded the harbor with missiles.
The port controller has finally given the ship the go-ahead to dock following a lull in shelling. But as containers of food and medical supplies were being unloaded from the ship, up to a dozen missiles were fired into the area of the port where migrant workers were gathered.
Witnesses said one missile hit a Nigerian or Ghanaian family, killing at least two children and their mother. Others said that the father and a third child had also died.
