At least 140 people drowned at the end of last week. This, following the sinking of a boat carrying around 200 migrants off the Senegalese coast. According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), this is the deadliest shipwreck recorded so far in 2020.
This is the worst toll in numbers of migrant deaths for 2020, according to the International Organization for Migration. “At least 140 people drowned after their boat, which was carrying around 200 people, sank off the coast of Senegal”, IOM said in a statement.
Controversial !
Recall that the Senegalese authorities spoke of a dozen young compatriots who died during the sinking of the canoe, after an explosion off Mbour and nearly sixty rescued by the national navy. At the same time, media sources report about twenty young people dead, all from Saint-Lousiens.
