More than 40 beached in northwest due to heavy winds and unstable weather have been rescued but seven others died, official news agency SPA said Friday.

Environment ministry staff, border guards, municipality workers, civil defence members and volunteers took part in the rescue, SPA said, guiding and moving the dolphins by hand from white sandy beaches into deeper waters.
