Too young to ever remember that perilous journey, a toddler nearly perished after a wooden vessel carrying migrants capsized on the Mediterranean sea.
In a story published by the New York Times, rescue operation found 29 bodies — 10 men and 19 women out of a boat holding roughly 150 people.
The passengers — from Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Nigeria and other sub-Saharan countries — were found on Tuesday. They are a part of a wave of more than 11,000 rescued in the Mediterranean by aid groups and the Italian Coast Guard this week.
