An Indonesian search and rescue ship has located a capsized wooden boat carrying dozens of Rohingya Muslim refugees, pulling survivors who had been standing on its hull to safety.
The Associated Press said 10 people had been taken aboard local fishing boats and another 59 were being saved by the Indonesian craft.
Men, women and children, weak and soaked from the night's rain, wept as the rescue operation got underway and people were taken aboard a rubber dinghy to the rescue boat.
