Spain to accept disputed migrant ship Aquarius

Spain's prime minister has said the country will take in a rescue ship stranded in the Mediterranean, to help avoid a humanitarian disaster. Pedro Sánchez said he would give "safe harbour" to the Aquarius and the 629 people on board, after Italy and Malta both refused to let the ship dock. The UN refugee agency and the EU had both called for a swift end to the stand-off between the two countries.
