Europe-bound dreams turned into a nightmare when a packed vessel flipped over in dark waters. It happened in The Gambia near Jinack village, where local officials confirmed at least seven people died. The North Bank Region disaster involved roughly two hundred migrants aiming for the Canary Islands before their ride failed completely. Defense ministry sources noted that search teams managed to pull ninety-six survivors from the ocean while leaving the wreckage stuck on a shallow sandy ridge.
