Italy's coast guard said difficult sea conditions were affecting the rescue.
The boat is one of two vessels carrying migrants currently being assisted by the Italian coastguard. The second is carrying around 800 people and is said to be overcrowded.
The country's coastguard has already rescued around 2,000 people in other operations since Friday, after a number of boats arrived at the Italian island of Lampedusa, one of the main arrival ports for people wanting to reach Europe, over the weekend.
At least two migrants died and around 20 others were missing after their boat sank on Saturday night, German non-profit ResQship said.
The boat carrying 400 people was last located by Alarm Phone in the Ionian Sea off the coast of Sicily on Tuesday.

A well placed torpedo would take care of that migrant crisis.
This exact same thing happened about two years ago. A cruddy old boat full of illegal immigrants off the coast of Italy. Nobody wanted them. Eventually, somebody felt sorry for them and pulled them to Italian shores anyway.
What is going on in Libya that these people are leaving in droves?
Sink it.

They’re not stranded. Their plan was to wait for aid and comfort from the people they came to invade. Italy should let these freeloading parasites sink to the bottom of the sea. Maybe blow them away with giant fans. That’ll put a stop to the invasion.
Libya is where the neocons switched sides in the war of terror and started flying top cover for Al Qeida. We smuggled weapons from there into Turkey and on to early ISIS.

Now it’s neocon hellscape and all of Africa floods into Libya as a port of departure.
Cultural insanity.
Asylum fraud and voter fraud - from top to toe.
The Deep State and the MSM encourage it - in Europe and North America - because they know that 80% of these folks will vote for the Political Left.
Much like “1984” and “Atlas Shrugged” , “Camp of the Saints” was supposed to be a cautionary tale, NOT an instruction manual.
You know what’s ironic, is these people’s grandparents are the one’s who voted for “independence” from all of the evil European countries and kicked out the “colonists” and now all they want to do is be back under the protection of the evil colonists again.
