Migrant shipwrecks claim dozens of lives off African coast.

At least 30 migrants are feared dead after their boat sank off the Canary Islands, with Spanish authorities rescuing 24 people and finding the bodies of a minor and a man. The boat was carrying around 60 people, according to two charities. The incident highlights Europe's response to migration, with the Western Africa-Atlantic migration route considered one of the world's deadliest. The Canary Islands are part of Spain, and many migrants travel from Africa to the archipelago in the hope of reaching mainland Europe. The incident comes after a migrant boat carrying hundreds of people sank off the Greek coast last week.
