Thousands of migrants rescued in 3 days in Mediterranean
[Ynet] About 8,300 migrants colonists have been rescued from unseaworthy smugglers boats over Easter weekend in the Mediterranean.
A UN refugee agency spokeswoman, Carlotta Sami, tweeted on Monday that "rescuers worked incessantly" over Friday, Saturday and Sunday, to save them. Eight migrants colonists died, including a pregnant woman.
So much easier and much less risky than the land route, or going across the sea from Turkey to Greece. |
