💨 Abstract
A boat carrying 200 African migrants sank off Yemen's coast, killing 56 and leaving 132 missing, the U.N. immigration agency reported. The tragedy, part of a series of deadly shipwrecks, highlights the perilous journey migrants take to reach Gulf countries. More than 350 migrants have died or gone missing this year alone on the Eastern Route.
