A migrant boat sank off Tunisia’s coast en route to Italy, leaving 13 people missing and only two survivors—one in critical condition. The tragedy underscores a dangerous Mediterranean crossing that’s become even more perilous as Tunisia, backed by EU funding and equipment, tightens border controls. Human rights groups condemn the EU-Tunisia deal, saying it fuels abuse and pushes migrants into greater danger. Tunisia denies wrongdoing, blaming a surge of migrants—some calling it a deliberate demographic strategy. This deadly route remains one of the most hazardous paths for asylum seekers fleeing Africa and the Middle East.
