Last month, around 50 Pakistanis died on a migrant boat, while trying to cross the Atlantic Ocean illegally to reach Europe in what has been called the Atlantic boat tragedy. The tragedy is not the first one. In June 2023, 300 hundred Pakistanis drowned in a migrant boat disaster. The boat capsized off the coast of Greece, with Italy being the intended destination. Before that, seven Pakistanis died off the coast of Libya in April 2023, in an incident that claimed 57 lives.
