: The number of Europe-bound migrants who died or went missing in the Mediterranean this summer has tripled since last year, the UN said Friday, adding it had become a “cemetery” for children.
At least 289 children have died so far this year while trying to make the dangerous crossing, said Nicola dell'Arciprete, UNICEF's country coordinator for Italy. “The Mediterranean has become a cemetery for children and their future,“ UNICEF’s Regina De Dominicis said. According to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, 2,500 migrants died or went missing in the Mediterranean between January 1 and September 24, 50 percent more than in the same period last year.
