Migration route from Algeria to Balearics logs 500+ deaths
The maritime route between the Algerian coasts and the Spanish Balearic Islands recorded more than 500 deaths during the first five months of 2026, marking the highest figure in years, according to a report by the "Caminando Fronteras" organization. The report revealed that 507 migrants lost their lives on this route, representing a 54.6% increase compared to the same period last year, with a child and a woman among the victims. Despite a 35% decrease in the number of migrants accepted into Spain, the mortality rate relative to the number of arrivals has risen, making crossing routes more dangerous. The organization called for improved rescue operations and better coordination in search efforts for the missing.
