Six migrants found dead in Tunisia desert
The bodies of two women and four children are reported to have been found in the desert in south-western Tunisia.
They are understood to have been migrants from Niger, who apparently died of thirst.
A sole survivor of the group had left to try to find water, but got lost.
The migrants had crossed into Tunisia from Algeria – walking in the heat wave that’s currently gripping North Africa.
Tunisia is a point of departure for many people trying to reach Europe.
