Poor children, what a scary way to go.

Good news! It's only going to get worse and worse.

Who’s putting them on shitty boats?

Verena Knaus, the UNICEF’s global lead on migration and displacement, said the true figures were likely to be higher as many shipwrecks on the Central Mediterranean leave no survivors or go unrecorded.

now thats even more concerning

The only silver lining is that this number hasn't reached the thousands like it probably will in the future.

From the article,

"Along the way, they can be exposed to detention, deprivation, torture, trafficking, violence, exploitation and rape."

Jesus, this is depressing. I only hope there is something that can be done in order for these children to reach their destination safely.

No child should ever have to endure this.

i struggle at swimming, im absolutely terrified of those children
