139 people dead, including 15 children, after migrant boat capsizes

"What is terrible is that they were buried with no names, in a common grave, like in a war situation," a U.N. official said.

  • At least 139 people, including 15 children, died in a migrant boat capsizing near Djibouti.
  • The boat sank due to overcrowding on October 8 evening, according to IOM.
  • 84 individuals remain missing, making this one of the deadliest shipwrecks.
