The Latest: Portugal to take 10 migrants from rescue ship
PIRAEUS, Greece (AP) — The Latest on Europe's migrant crisis (all times local): 4:50 p.m. Portugal's government says it is taking in 10 of the 58 migrants aboard a rescue ship in the Mediterranean Sea, as part of a deal with France and Spain. The Portuguese Interior Ministry said in a statement it was making the gesture "out of a sense of solidarity and in concert with Spain and France." Authorities in Paris and Madrid made no immediate announcement about a possible deal on what to do with the other people on the Aquarius 2 rescue vessel. The ship asked France on Monday to let the migrants disembark in Marseille, but Paris said there were closer ports and a need for a comprehensive European solution to the migrant problem.

The Latest: Migrant rescue ship heads toward France
PIRAEUS, Greece (AP) — The Latest on Europe's migrant crisis (all times local): 1:05 p.m. A rescue vessel carrying 58 migrants pulled from the Mediterranean north of Libya is heading toward France and an uncertain welcome. In a tweet Tuesday, the humanitarian group Medecins Sans Frontieres, which jointly operates the Aquarius 2, said it was "headed north towards France."

France deflected the request, saying there were closer ports and a need for a European solution.
