Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
African migrants
risk all in the Mediterranean Sea
For them, it seems
still safer or more hopeful than staying in their homelands. Though it costs a
lot for a tiny space onboard without safety equipment, hundreds of thousand people
try to sail across the sea to Europe from Africa and the Middle East. Over
thousands for such people including great number of minors are estimated to
have lost their lives before they reached the land or were rescued by the coast
guard’s or volunteers’ vessels. Even though they are fortunate enough to reach
their new lands, they don’t have any ID, money or belonging. They know nobody to
ask for help and have nowhere to live. And the number of such refugees has been
increasing and shows no sign to decrease in the foreseeable future.
