49 Die of Thirst in Desert Two Survive
Nigerien authorities have launched an investigation following the deaths of 49 people from thirst in the Sahara Desert after their truck broke down. The truck was transporting them from Mali to Niger, and the victims died in a remote area near the border between Mali and Algeria due to high temperatures and a lack of water. Rescuers found the bodies around the vehicle, and the victims were buried in mass graves. Meanwhile, another truck that was stranded with more than 60 people on board, whose battery had failed, assisted them. Young people from Niger continue to travel to Mali for work in the informal mining sectors despite security risks.
