Image description

A refugee from Sierra Leone, exhausted and lucky to be alive, slumps her head against the head rest on a Maltese Army coach near the Russian survey ship "Akademia Nikolas Strakov" in Grand Harbour in Valletta on December 6. The group of 52 refugees was rescued by the ship's crew 94 miles south-west of Malta. The 43 men and 9 women, from Sierra Leone, Egypt and Algeria, were found on a small open boat in rough seas. Eight of their colleagues are missing, believed drowned and a search for them was abandoned at sundown. They are believed to have been on their way to Italy. DZL/CLH/
