A member of the team from Médecins Sans Frontières ship the Geo Barents prepares to carry out a rescue in the Central Mediterranean on Friday, August 2, 2024. The rescue was later called off after the boat to be rescued was seemingly intercepted by the Libyan coastguard. More than 30,000 people have died or gone missing in the Mediterranean Sea since 2014 while trying to reach Europe, according to figures collected by the International Organisation for Migration - and the real figures may be much higher.
