Deadly Crossing to Europe | Dover News
Description
A horrific maritime disaster off Mauritania’s coast has claimed nearly 150 lives or left them missing as migrants attempt the perilous journey to Europe. Two boats—one carrying 160 Gambians, the other 179 Senegalese—suffered catastrophic failures, with one stranded for 25 days after running out of fuel. While 387 others were rescued, the UN warns this route to the Canary Islands remains one of the deadliest in the world, driven by desperation as people flee economic hardship in sub-Saharan Africa.
