The 114 people, including 54 women and children, had been aboard a small fishing boat about 40 nautical miles from the southern Cypriot port of Larnaca at the time they struck trouble, said a source in the island's Joint Rescue Coordination Centre. The boat had departed from the Syrian port town of Tartus and stopped in Tripoli, in **rthern Leba**n, authorities said.
