(ANSA) - ROME, APRIL 23 - As often happens, it is an image to restore in its entirety a drama such as the death of at least 100 people, overwhelmed by the waves while looking for a future. A single photo that shows all the horror and suffering. It is the one taken by the rescuers of Sos Mediterranee, which portrays a now defenseless man, kept afloat by a life jacket which, however, was not enough. The face cannot be seen because it is lying in the water but the life jacket suggests that he knew how risky that trip would be. That he had taken precautions. But he could not imagine the six-meter high waves.
The rescuers of Sos Mediterranee assure that there are other terrible photos documenting this umpteenth tragedy, but they have decided not to publish them. For those hundred migrants this body speaks it, symbol of all migrants who died at sea.
