ROSETTA, Egypt — Rescue workers Tuesday pulled dozens of bodies from the hold of an Egyptian fishing boat that sank in the Mediterranean Sea carrying hundreds of migrants trying to make it to Europe, bringing the toll from the disaster to more than 200 dead.

As the dead were brought to a pier outside the coastal city of Rosetta, families of the missing went through the grisly task of searching through the body bags for their loved ones. Women broke into screams and some men collapsed whenever they recognized someone, some only by their clothes because of the bodies' condition after nearly a week in the water.

For days, authorities and fishermen have recovered bodies from the water or found them on the shore, ever since the boat capsized and sank early on Sept. 21 about 7.5 miles off the Egyptian coast.

Around 160 of those on board survived, many of them spending hours in the water until being rescued by local fishing boats. Families of those still missing have been camped out all week at the piers, waiting for word on their loved ones and angrily accusing authorities of not doing enough to find them.

On Tuesday, a crane vessel hauled the boat out of the mud of the seafloor so that authorities could retrieve bodies trapped in the hold.

Authorities pulled 33 bodies out of the hold, bringing the toll to 203, said the head of a local municipal council.

International court convicts radical who razed mausoleums

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — An international court on Tuesday found a Muslim radical guilty of committing a war crime by overseeing the destruction of nine historic mausoleums in the Malian desert city of Timbuktu, and sentenced him to nine years in prison.

Ahmad Al Faqi Al Mahdi, a former teacher, had pleaded guilty and expressed remorse for his role in overseeing the destruction of nine mausoleums and a mosque door by pickax-wielding rebels in June and July of 2012.

His trial, which opened Aug. 22, was a landmark for the International Criminal Court, which has struggled to bring suspects to justice since its establishment in 2002.

It was the tribunal's first conviction for destruction of religious buildings or historic monuments, and the first guilty verdict delivered against a Muslim extremist.

Jeb Bush to teach, lecture on education at Harvard this fall

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will spend time at Harvard University this fall.

In Iowa, flood barriers protect Cedar Rapids as river crests

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — An elaborate system of temporary flood-retention walls largely protected Cedar Rapids homes and businesses Tuesday as the river that runs through the city reached its second-highest peak ever.

City officials said the 9.8-mile system of Hesco barriers and earthen berms that contractors erected over the weekend was successfully holding back the rain-swollen Cedar River.

The city, Iowa's second-largest, received good news as the river crested Tuesday morning at 22.1 feet — a foot lower than predicted Monday. That was 9 feet below the 2008 flood that destroyed thousands of homes and businesses.

The barriers are made of steel mesh panels lined with a thick polypropylene material that can be quickly filled with sand or dirt.

Separate rallies for Crutcher and Shelby in Tulsa

TULSA, Okla. — Two competing rallies over the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man by a white Oklahoma police officer could have left residents with the difficult choice of which to attend. But some residents said Tuesday it was possible to support both the police and the victim.

Tulsa police officer Betty Shelby is charged with first-degree manslaughter in the death of Terence Crutcher. The shooting was recorded on police cameras.

The Rev. Al Sharpton led hundreds of Crutcher supporters in a rally and march in downtown Tulsa. Blocks away, residents rallied to support Shelby.

Black resident Don Ailsworth went to the Shelby rally and planned to go to the Crutcher rally. He said people shouldn't have to pick between supporting one or the other and that common ground exists.

Suicide attacks in Baghdad kill at least 17 and injure over 40

BAGHDAD — Separate suicide bombings ripped through busy commercial areas in Shiite-dominated neighborhoods of the Iraqi capital on Tuesday, killing at least 17 civilians, officials said.

The deadliest attack took place in the eastern New Baghdad neighborhood, where a bomber approached construction workers and set off his explosives-laden vest, killing 11 civilians, a police officer said. At least 28 civilians were wounded, he said.

Another suicide bomber blew himself up in an outdoor market in the southwestern neighborhood of Bayaa, killing six people and wounding 21 others, police said.

In statements posted on a militant website used by the extremists, the Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attacks, saying it targeted Shiite militia members.

Iranian ex-president: Iran's hard-line former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday he won't run in next year's presidential election, ending weeks of speculation after the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei discouraged his candidacy.
