Ship	State	Description
Migrant ship	Egypt	A ship carrying roughly five hundred migrants from Palestine, Sudan and Egypt was rammed off the coast of Malta by another vessel used by the Egyptian traffickers smuggling them to Italy. Ten survivors were plucked from the waters in the ensuing days. According to independent accounts of two of the survivors, the ramming occurred after a dispute occurred between the migrants and traffickers. The migrants had refused to transfer to a smaller ship in tow at the behest of the traffickers, due to its dangerously small size, and the traffickers reacted to the refusal by deliberately sinking the ship. The boat had departed from Egypt's port of Damietta on 6 September. Survivors estimated that the drowning victims consisted of at least four hundred men and women, and as many as one hundred children—some who held onto life preservers for days before finally being taken under by a storm.
