The bodies of at least 74 migrants have been washed ashore in western Libya, in the latest tragedy along the dangerous trafficking route to Europe. The Libyan Red Crescent posted photos of dozens of bodies in black and white bags lined up along the shore near the western city of Zawiya.
A spokesman for the aid organisation said there were still bodies floating out at sea as the agency had no way of retrieving them. He said the migrants were all adults, mostly from sub-Saharan African countries, and all but three were men.
The UN migration agency, the International Organisation of Migration (IOM), said the dinghy had set off on Saturday with 110 people on board. The agency said traffickers deliberately took the engines from the boat and then abandoned it to drift.

Bro it's actually the opposite. In the middle of an ocean or sea life jacket is more important than Michael Phelps swimming skills.

*I feel for their family and friends for this collosal less on d high sea back home*!

It is not as if they were being ferried for free, they pay good money for the journey that is very high risk! Despite the calamity, another group is setting out.

I keep saying it, stay in your country. If you can't get a job, go into farming, you will surely see what to eat. RIP

In the search for greener pasture...hmmmmmmmmmm..........help us Lord.

nawa oh

I used to ask my self why people embark on such risky journey even with 500k? Until I listened to my friend who just crossed over to Italy from Libya. According to him he said after safe crossing,the Italia authority will automatically take them in while they along with UN give them monthly stipend till they get their full ' papers'

Oh my gosh! God help us all.

on the quest for a greener pasture, and they finally made it to an ever greener pasture where death is no more...rip.

Does it really work that way?

Considering the smugglers charge up to 400 usd for this suicide trip. Smh. Money they could hv used for business

This is so sad, so many people have lost their lives because of search for greener pastures

They just want to answer people living outside the country, cause I don't believe someone who has 400 dollars is doing badly at home.

They want to develop Europe...

Our land is green

Journey of no destination...........no return.
