Migrants' bodies found off Libyan coast
An aerial surveillance operation off the Libyan coast resulted in the discovery of 11 bodies of migrants in advanced stages of decomposition, highlighting the significant dangers faced by migrants attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea from North Africa to Europe. The bodies were found inside inflatable rafts, with some still dressed in their clothes, approximately 57 nautical miles from Zuwara, Libya. According to the organization "SOS Mediterranee," this scene reflects the human consequences of Europe's deadly policies. The Italian Coast Guard reported that the bodies were lost within the Libyan search area. Although the number of migrants decreased by 46% in 2026, the death toll and the number of migrants missing during the crossing increased by 111% in the first four months of the year, with 821 people dead or missing. Meanwhile, the total number of irregular crossings into the European Union reached about 178,000 cases, a 26% decrease compared to the previous year.
