Libya's coast witnesses a tragic shipwreck resulting in the presumed death of 61 migrants, with 25 rescued and transferred to a detention center. The survivors are mainly from Nigeria and Gambia. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) emphasizes the urgent need for action to save lives at sea, citing over 2,250 deaths on the central Mediterranean migrant route. The Adriana fishing boat's sinking in international waters off southwest Greece resulted in 104 survivors and 82 recovered bodies. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's win in elections is linked to promises to stop illegal migration, underscoring the ongoing issue of human trafficking in Libya.
