Djibouti boat tragedy ‘a rude wake-up call’ to huge risks migrants take Interviews

At least 38 migrants, including women and children, lost their lives in a shipwreck off the coast of Djibouti on Monday and although 22 people were saved by local fishermen, six others remain missing and are presumed dead.
UN migration agency, IOM, which is assisting survivors with treatment and other support, told UN News this was far from an isolated tragedy.
Much more needs to be done to avoid such tragedies impacting those in search of new opportunities said IOM’s Yvonne Ndege, who gave Vibhu Mishra the latest on the disaster and the ongoing relief effort for survivors.
