Spanish rescuers saved 248 migrants, including women and children, from dangerous waters off the Canary Islands, on Sunday, 24 August.

Many of the migrants have fled countries such as Senegal, Mali, and Nigeria, where economic hardship and political instability have pushed people to seek a better life in Europe, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
