Le Monde: 'Voluntary return' becomes a new path for many migrants in Tunisia
Migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa, including Senegalese and Ivorians, are facing a grim reality as their attempts to reach Europe have largely failed. The beaches near El Amra in Tunisia, once a launch point for their journeys, have become a dead end due to a significant drop in crossings to Italy.
The decline in successful crossings is attributed to a 2023 agreement between Tunisia and the EU, which provided financial aid to bolster Tunisia's coast guard. As a result, only 432 migrants have reached Italy this year, a stark contrast to over 18,000 during the same period two years ago. Many migrants are now contemplating returning home.
