13 Tunisians died in boat sinking
At least 13 Tunisians drowned off the Tunisian coasts while attempting a clandestine migration to Italy, when the boat carrying a group of young men from Ben Gardane capsized. Two people were rescued, one of whom is in critical condition, after hours stranded at sea. Human rights organizations indicate that the number of victims has increased by 111% in the first four months of 2026 compared to the same period last year, despite a 46% decrease in the number of arrivals. This suggests that the decline in journeys does not reflect improved safety for sea crossings, even as the risks along the Central Mediterranean route continue to rise.
