In this picture taken Sunday, June 15, 2014, migrants from Africa are temporarily sheltered in the Catholic church of St. Curato D'Ars in Palermo, Sicily, Italy. The Italian coast guard and navy have rescued more than 300 migrants whose boats ran into trouble in the Mediterranean Sea and recovered the bodies of 10 migrants whose dinghy had overturned, Sunday. Naval official Salvatore Scimone said 39 survivors on Saturday night had grabbed onto the dinghy until rescuers plucked them to safety aboard another boat. He said he feared that an undetermined number of others were missing in the sea north of Libya. In a separate rescue, three Italian ships took aboard 281 migrants who said they were Syrian and whose fishing boat ran into problems. (AP Photo/Alessandro Fucarini)

Twelve-year-old, Kemi Olajuwon, who has to drop out of school some days to sell smoked fish and make money so there can be food in the house, and also for her school fees, displays her fish on the street in the Obalende area of Lagos, Nigeria, Tuesday, June 17, 2014. About 30 million primary school-aged children in sub-Saharan Africa are not in class, partially because of conflict and poverty, and progress to get them back to school has stalled, two U.N. agencies said. The situation is especially dire in West and Central Africa, which has the largest proportion of children out of school of any region in the world, said a pair of reports published Monday by UNICEF, the U.N. children's agency, and the statistics arm of UNESCO, the U.N. cultural and education agency.

Residents barricade a road with burning tyres and other roadblocks as they protest against the recent killings and what they claimed was the government's failure to provide them with enough security, in the village of Kibaoni just outside the town of Mpeketoni, about 60 miles (100 kilometers) from the Somali border on the coast of Kenya Tuesday, June 17, 2014. Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta, in a nationally televised address Tuesday, blamed political leaders inside Kenya for carrying out two nights of deadly attacks that killed at least 60 people in coastal communities, saying that despite claims of responsibility from al-Shabab, the Islamic extremists were not behind it.
