Europe’s New Migration Rules Shift Pressure South to North Africa$

As the European Union prepares to implement its revised migration framework in mid-2026, coordination between Italy and North African states is already reshaping how migration is managed across the Mediterranean.

While framed as regional cooperation, the emerging system raises questions about governance, funding transparency, and the capacity of transit states to absorb migrants who are unable to move forward or return home. The result may be fewer arrivals in Europe, but increased pressure and instability along the southern Mediterranean.

Migrations: The heartbreaking death of African migrants in the Atlantic, nearly 4,000 miles awayF

These 14 people went to the DR, but they did not fly, nor they arrived alive. InfoMigriant says a boat carrying 14 migrants from Senegalese, Mauritania and other African migrants did indeed reach the shores of Rio San Juan, east of the famous resort beach of Sosua in the Dominican Republic, except they were dead, and their bodies were in advanced decomposition. While this event in itself is sad, it happens more often than we know. Most of the time, the deaths occur through drowning. This time, it is remarkable that the boat, a simple canoe, managed to reach the DR. This means that the victims have died of thirst, hunger and despair.
