At least fifteen bodies of migrants were found off the coast of Dakar, Senegal, with two survivors. The boat carrying the migrants was forced to dock by the navy, causing people to jump off, some of whom did not know how to swim. Senegalese President Macky Sall expressed his sorrow over the incident, and the country's Interior Minister visited the site of the shipwreck. In recent weeks, there has been an increase in migration activity from northwest Africa to the Canary Islands, resulting in several tragic incidents.
