(CNN) -- One hundred people are missing in the Gulf of Aden after smugglers forced them overboard off the coast of Yemen, a U.N. spokesman said Friday.
The U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees in Yemen is taking care of 47 survivors, the spokesman said.
The U.N. offered no additional details on the type of vessel or its route.
Meanwhile, U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees spokesman Ron Redmond told The Associated Press in Geneva that about 32,000 people have arrived in Yemen on boats since the start of the year.
Many of them are fleeing violence and hardship in Somalia and other countries in the Horn of Africa, he said.
UNHCR estimates at least 230 people have died and 365 remain missing, including 100 from the latest incident.
