Remembering the 369 refugees who drowned in Lampedusa exactly 12 years ago today. I can never forget the 22 years old Yohanna who gave birth as she was drowning, her body was later found with an ombilical cord attached to her baby. #NeverForgotten #ForeverInOurHearts #PeopleNotNumbers #Lampedusa #BordersKill #FortressEurope
