(Vatican News Network) A small boat carrying migrants from Sfax, Tunisia capsized in the Sicily Channel a few days ago, killing 41 migrants and only four survived. In a tweet on his Twitter account on August 10, Pope Francis reiterated his call to fight apathy and avoid the danger of a “shipwreck of civilization”.
The Pope wrote in a tweet: “It is with sadness that I learn of another migrant shipwreck in the Mediterranean. We cannot remain indifferent to this tragedy. Let us pray for the victims and their families.”
According to the international organization Save the Children, more than 2,000 people may be dead or missing among those attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea since the beginning of 2023.
