'Her Dying Wish Was to Get the Kids to Europe'
The 主播大秀's Orla Guerin meets a family waiting to cross to Europe from Libya with orphaned children whose mother died on the way.
For the sixth year in a row, more than 1,000 people have died attempting to cross the Mediterranean Sea, according to the UN Refugee Agency.
The Mediterranean crossing remains the deadliest known migration route worldwide. People are four times more likely to die than last year, according to the International Organization for Migration, because there are fewer humanitarian rescue vessels at sea.
Most leave from Libya, where 主播大秀 international correspondent Orla Guerin met one family from Cameroon who were determined to keep trying the treacherous crossing.
