Emotional Photos Of 2 Nigerian Siblings Crying Uncontrollably After Losing Their Mum On Their Way To Europe

The photos of these two young Nigerian children aged 11 and 10 who were among the 150 sub-Saharan refugees and migrants rescued from their overcrowded boat off the coast of Libya while trying to cross the Mediterranean ocean into Italy by a Spanish NGO’s boat is heart breaking.

According to reports, the two crying siblings lost their mum in the Mediterranean on their way to Europe.

A leading migration group says more than 3,000 people have died trying to cross the Mediterranean this year, nearly a 60-percent increase from this time in 2015.

 

May her soul rest in perfect peace!
