But the presence of two minor premiums, 15 and 17 years old and from the Ivory Coast, among the survivors suggests that this is about this vessel.
The NGO walking borders has been able to confirm the presence of these two minors in the pneumatics, information corroborated by EFE in sources of emergency services.
