More than 100 migrants are missing in the Red Sea after smugglers forced them to swim to shore, revealing the dangers of human trafficking in the region.
A regional director at the IOM confirmed that of the 310 migrants, 48 have been reported dead, highlighting the tragic outcomes of perilous migration journeys.
Celestin speculated that the smugglers may have been 'spooked by the coastguard' or hoped to 'go back to pick up more people,' illustrating their unpredictable tactics.
The eastern migration route is particularly significant as it often involves temporary migration patterns, with individuals seeking immediate work opportunities in neighboring Gulf countries.
