Five people lost at sea for three months saved on a Kiribati island

According to the New York Times, five passengers of a boat that went missing in Micronesia in July reached a remote island in Kiribati. This happened this past weekend, that is, after three months spent at sea. According to the paper, they came ashore without clothes and in an extremely exhausted state. The distance they covered exceeds 3,000 miles. The source gives no other details, including the names of the survivors. The story is remarkable precisely because of the distance they covered on the open sea.
