The coastguard said rescue operations had been complicated by rough seas "but also owing to the large number of people who fell into the water simultaneously".
Italian media reported one Eritrean man and a Libyan man as saying they had lost their wives.
The public prosecutor in the Sicilian port of Agrigento announced an investigation had been opened into the incident.
The SOS Mediterranee and Medecins sans Frontieres NGOs said meanwhile Sunday that 213 migrants rescued in recent days in the Sicilian port of Messina by humanitarian vessel Ocean Viking had disembarked
Spanish NGO Open Arms, which Thursday rescued 73 migrants in a separate operation, meanwhile urged European governments to authorise "immediately" the migrants' disembarkation in a safe port, citing a "critical" situation.
"We continue to demand that people's rights, established under international conventions and maritime law, be respected," tweeted Open Arms' chef de mission Riccardo Gatti.
Ocean Viking made similar demands as both NGOs warned there was an urgent need for a coordinated urgent response to deal with the "humanitarian catastrophe" in the region.
