Smugglers forced more than 120 Somali and Ethiopian migrants into rough seas off Yemen on Wednesday, leaving 29 dead and 22 missing, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) said. Then they "simply went back to where they came from to pick more migrants and try to smuggle them into Yemen, again". IOM staff attend to the remains of a deceased migrant on a beach in Yemen. IOM staff assist Somali, Ethiopian migrants who were forced into the sea by smugglers (UN Migration Agency - IOM). Several refugee camps in southern Yemen host Somali refugees.
