Migrant boat capsizes off Egypt, killing at least 20 – No Telling How Many European Lives Have Been Saved

Title credit to Irony Curtain.

Egyptian authorities say a boat carrying African migrants headed to Europe has capsized off the Mediterranean coast near the city of Alexandria, killing at least 20 people.

Health Ministry official Alaa Osman from Beheira province says that 155 people have been rescued, but that bodies are still being found in the area. He says the migrants were from several African countries.

Egypt’s official news agency MENA said the boat had been carrying 600 people.

Thousands of illegal migrants have made the dangerous sea voyage across the Mediterranean in recent years fleeing war and poverty, mostly via lawless Libya. Thousands have drowned.

  1. If that many people were on board the boat, there had to be families involved, and women and children are usually the least likely to survive a capsizing like this.

    For that reason, I really can’t feel any joy or satisfaction about it.

    🙁
