Migrant boat sinks off Tunisia with 13 dead

A migrant boat sank off the Tunisian coast while attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea to Italy. The incident resulted in the disappearance of 13 Tunisians and the rescue of two individuals, one of whom is in critical condition. The head of the Tunisian Observatory for Human Rights confirmed that the boat set sail early Thursday morning, and that the prolonged time the migrants spent stranded at sea, along with bad weather conditions, contributed to the accident. Over the past two years, the number of migrants leaving Tunisia has decreased due to a heightened crackdown on migration and European support for increased monitoring of the maritime borders. Meanwhile, crossing the Mediterranean remains one of the most dangerous migration routes in the world.
