From the BiH Embassy in Italy for Patria: I still don't know if there are BiH citizens on the ferry of death

Members of the BiH Embassy in Italy have been trying since Sunday to find out if there are citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina on the ferry of death, but they might only get that information today around 12 PM, it was confirmed to the BiH news agency Patria from the BiH embassy in Rome.

A large number of passengers died on the Italian ferry Norman Atlantic, which caught fire on Sunday en route from Greece to Italy, and that number could rise to over 60 passengers!

Among the rescued who were disembarked in Bari, more and more stowaways, illegal immigrants, who smuggled themselves onto the ship are being discovered every hour. Before boarding the ferry, they hide under trucks, they disembark the ferry in the same way, and during the voyage they crawl out as soon as the sailors secure the vehicles and leave the garages. These are people fleeing their countries trying to find safety elsewhere. 

Although the cause of the fire is still unknown, experts warn that the fire was caused precisely by stowaways who were lighting fires to keep warm, which then got out of control, writes Patria.
