Spanish rescuers are searching for a boat carrying at least 300 people in the waters of the Canary Islands.
The three migrant boats were headed to the Spanish islands from Senegal.
The two other boats one carrying about 65 people and the other with between 50 and 60 persons on board, have been missing since they left Senegal two weeks ago.
The third boat left Senegal on June 27 with about 200 people aboard, Helena Maleno of the NGO Walking Borders told Reuters.
The families have not heard from them since.
