Rescue of 6 bodies after migrant boat capsizes south of Tunisia

Tunisian rescue teams retrieved six bodies of illegal migrants after a boat capsized off the coast of Ben Guerdane, while search efforts for missing persons are still ongoing. The boat had departed from the city’s coast since Wednesday, and reports vary regarding the number of those rescued, with search operations continuing, aided by military helicopters. Tunisia, a major departure point for migrants heading to Europe, faces significant risks on the Mediterranean routes, which have seen a more than doubling in migrant deaths since the beginning of the year. Tunisia has also signed agreements with the European Union to strengthen efforts to prevent irregular migration.
