Pregnant Women, Children, Bodies Found Drifting On The Sea(Photos) by Explorers(m): 6:56pm On Jul 26, 2017 |
Horrifying photographs showing pregnant women and children among dead migrants found in a rubber dinghy has shone a light on the grim reality of the desperate scramble to cross the Mediterranean into Europe. A Spanish charity found 167 migrants alive and 13 dead in yet another rescue operation involving rubber boats crossing the deadly stretch of sea. More than 2,200 migrants have died trying to reach Europe across the Mediterranean so far this year according to the International Organization for Migration meaning on average 10 people a day die making the journey. The latest grim salvation mission was 15 miles off the coast of Sabratha in Libya and the migrants on board were said to be sub-Saharan and the failed journey resulted in more than a dozen deaths. As some migrants' corpses lie naked in the middle of the dinghy, others can be seen in the pictures sitting around in life-jackets waiting to be rescued. The European Union has extended the mandate of its naval operation targeting migrant smuggling in the Mediterranean until the end of 2018 and tasked it with monitoring illegal oil trafficking from Libya. Operation Sophia, which has naval ships and aircraft monitoring the Mediterranean, aims to disrupt smuggling networks and train Libya's coastguard as a way of stemming the flow of desperate migrants attempting the risky crossing from Libya to Italy in unseaworthy boats.

Aid workers of Proactiva Open Arms recover dead bodies of Sub-Saharan migrants inside a rubber boat in the Mediterranean Sea. More than 120 migrants were rescued Tuesday from the Mediterranean Sea while 13 more including pregnant women and children died in a crammed rubber raft, according to a Spanish rescue group.

The pain is etched upon this mother's face after being rescued along with 167 others trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea. Italy's coastguard said more than 8,000 migrants had been rescued off the coast of Libya in a 48-hour period last month. Most were young people from Cameroon, Sudan, Mali and Senegal, said Libyan navy spokesman General Ayoub Qassem, and were found crammed aboard a makeshift rubber dinghy. Migrants intercepted or rescued by Libya's coastguard are usually held in detention centres until they are sent home. But many become prey to extortion and abuse at the hands of human traffickers, who have exploited years of chaos in Libya to boost their lucrative but deadly trade. More than 90,000 migrants have landed on Italy's shores since January, a 14-percent rise on the same period last year. Sub-Saharan migrants sit on the deck of a rescue boat after being dragged from the water by Spanish charity workers.

Dozens of migrants wearing bright orange buoyancy aids float in the sea around 15 miles off the coast of Sabratha, Libya. Desperate African migrants, some wearing life jackets and others just with sports shirts on their top halves, hold out their arms begging to be pulled from the sinking dinghy. An African migrant with fear in his eyes tries to reach a rescue boat from theSpanish NGO Proactiva Open Arms, after being located sailing out of controlon a punctured rubber boat in the Mediterranean Sea.

African leaders really need to step up their game in making sure that this continent is habitable for its citizen. God help Africa. This is quite disheartening and embarassing. 1 Like |

I don't pity anyone that tries anything as stupid and dumb as this. Africa is a shithole yes but there are so many opportunities here. Even if they got into Europe what are they gonna do there without any skills or education. There are lots of opportunities in out shithole continent but most of us are too blind to see it.
