The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is deeply saddened by the tragic loss of life off the coast of Mahdia, Tunisia, where a boat carrying 70 migrants capsized shortly after departing the Tunisian village of Salakta. Forty people have died: nine women, 19 men, and 12 children under the age of five.
Insecurity Insight’s monitoring indicates that between 2016 and 2024, at least 21 aid workers and 73 health workers, six of which worked for health NGOs, were reportedly killed in drone attacks.
