A Moroccan fishing boat has been missing since October 9 when it had its last radio contact with another boat off Morocco's southwestern coast.

The "Jrifat," which had on board 10 persons, had left the port of Sidi Ifni on October 8, and its radio contact ceased the day after. The Moroccan Fisheries Ministry said investigations are being conducted to find the boat.
