Teenage woman present in boat drifting for 22 days at sea – BBC Information
A 17-year-old from Ivory Coast has shared her unimaginable story of being rescued after spending three weeks adrift at sea.

Out of 59 passengers, Aicha is one in every of solely three to outlive – recovering after 10 days in hospital.

It is the most important identified tragedy involving migrant boats within the Canary Islands.

Aicha left her hometown in November and travelled to Mauritania, the place she obtained the boat. Solely her older sister knew of her plans to make the perilous journey.

She was rescued by a Spanish Air Power crew member, who she has now been reunited with.
