The bodies of 74 people who wanted to reach Europe appear on the Libyan coast
- 74 people who wanted to travel to Europe across the Mediterranean, many of them children, have been found dead on the Libyan coast, reports the Red Moon organization. According to the NGO, the dead had sailed two days earlier on an inflatable boat, along with 36 other missing persons. The dead were from several African countries.
In the words of the Libyan Coast Guard, human traffickers have begun to use larger inflatable boats to transport more people to Europe. They're strong ships, but they're more dangerous when there's big waves.
Last Saturday, February 18, the Coast Guard took 186 more people adrift from the sea, in an area similar to the one where the dead have appeared. Several sources have indicated that the coastal area between Tripoli and the Tunisian border has been one of the areas most used by traffickers for the past two years.
For its part, the International Organization of Migration reports that since the beginning of 2017, 13,100 people have reached Europe irregularly, and in the same period of time around 275 have disappeared at sea.
