Video: Baby Rescued From Immigrant Ship By Italian Coast Guard

Watch a young baby being rescued from a ship carrying thousands of immigrants after falling ill.

As many as 1,500 migrants have already died trying to cross the Mediterranean this year, on course to far exceed the 3,200 people the IOM estimates died making the journey last year, given that the summer peak has not yet begun. Fewer than 100 of last year’s deaths took place before May

The IOM says more than 21,000 people have made the journey so far this year, comparable to 26,000 by the end of April last year, but with a death toll so far around 15 times as high.
