Breaking: 68 Ethiopian Migrants Dead, 74 Missing As Boat Cap…



A devastating tragedy struck off the coast of Yemen on Sunday as a migrant boat carrying 154 Ethiopian nationals capsized in the Gulf of Aden. The UN’s International Organization for Migration (IOM) confirmed at least 68 deaths and 74 people still missing after the vessel sank near the southern Yemeni province of Abyan. The boat was reportedly en route to wealthy Gulf Arab nations when it went down.

Bodies of 54 migrants washed ashore in Khanfar district, while 14 others were recovered and transported to a hospital in Zinjibar, the capital of Abyan province. This is the latest in a grim pattern of fatal shipwrecks involving African migrants fleeing conflict and poverty in pursuit of economic opportunities. Hundreds have perished in recent months on the perilous route through the Gulf of Aden. The IOM has called for urgent international support and greater protection for vulnerable migrants on this deadly corridor.
