At least 20 Somali migrants, mostly young men, have died in the Mediterranean Sea, hoping to reach the Spanish island of Palma.<\/p>\n

The migrants, who set off from Algeria, are reported to have died of hunger and thirst after the small boat they were travelling in capsized.<\/p>\n

Reports also indicate that only two survivors, both under the age of 18, were rescued by a passing merchant ship after several days at sea without food or water.<\/p>\n

Emergency services on the island of Palma confirmed that the two minors who were rescued are now receiving urgent medical care and psychological support.<\/p>\n

Spanish authorities have launched an investigation to identify the dead and to learn more about the boat\u2019s departure and the circumstances leading up to the disaster.<\/p>\n

“This is another heartbreaking reminder of the dangers migrants face as they flee poverty, conflict, and climate instability,” said a spokesperson for the International Organization for Migration (IOM).<\/p>\n

The Central Mediterranean route remains one of the world’s deadliest migration routes, with thousands of migrants dying each year, most of them from countries in the Horn of Africa.<\/p>\n
