Popis: “Most of the bodies were floating face down. Some wore life jackets. But there were a lot of life jackets without any bodies inside. It was a moment I’ll never forget.” These are the words of the crew member who first alerted Spanish Maritime Rescue to a capsized boat in the Mediterranean Sea on February 4, 2018. He was on board his ferry, making his daily trip between Almeria, a city in Southern Spain, and Melilla, one of two small Spanish enclaves that still remains in Northern Morocco.
