48 Survivors of a Tragic Boat Accident Arrive in Mogadishu

On Saturday, 48 survivors of the tragic boat sinking that claimed the lives of 22 Somali nationals off the coast of Madagascar on November 23, 2024, safely arrived in Mogadishu.

The Somali government arranged a special flight to repatriate them, reflecting its commitment to aiding citizens in distress abroad.

This incident sheds light on the dangers of irregular migration and the urgent need for international cooperation to address the socio-economic factors driving such perilous journeys.
