On Wednesday, the Libyan Red Crescent reported the discovery of four children aged between five and ten, washed ashore after a migrant boat sank off the coast of Zawiya in western Libya.
The National Commission for Human Rights in Libya (NCHRL) has called for an investigation into the incident. “We were informed [Wednesday] of a boat that was sinking on the high sea with 30 people on board,” the Red Crescent’s Hassan Mokhtar Al-Bey told AFP.
Mr. Bey said his team expected to find more corpses, adding that the children had been taken to the Zawiya morgue.
