M36-218

June 11, 2017: On Ras Lemssa Beach, south of Zarzis—where several bodies were found last week—there are numerous remnants of migrants’ life jackets, jackets, shoes, and other clothing. In Zarzis, on the Tunisian coast bordering Libya, Chemseddine Marzoug, a former fisherman who is now unemployed, has been volunteering for the past 10 years to give those who have drowned in the Mediterranean a burial in the sand. As volunteers for the Tunisian Red Crescent, Chemseddine and his colleague Mohamed Trabelsi have spent the last 10 years burying the bodies of migrants found at sea or washed up on beaches in southern Tunisia in a makeshift cemetery at a municipal landfill. This spring, the death toll has been very high—27 bodies were recovered last month.
