The UN migration agency said migrant children have died or gone missing at the rate of at least one per day worldwide over the past five years, with treacherous journeys like those across the Mediterranean or the US-Mexico border continuing to take lives. In its latest “Fatal Journeys” report, the International Organization for Migration has released findings that some 1,600 children — some as young as 6 months old — are among the 32,000 people who have perished in dangerous travels since 2014, the Associated Press (AP) reported. The Mediterranean remains the most fatal crossing, with over 17,900 people dying there; many on the hazardous trip between Libya and Italy. Meanwhile, 40 passengers on a German rescue ship, who were saved off Libya 16 days ago, are still blocked offshore by Italys refusal to let them disembark. According to AP, two migrants have been evacuated from the ship overnight for medical reasons.
