Would-be immigrants tend to an ill fellow would-be immigrant while sitting in a police bus at the Armed Forces of Malta Maritime Squadron base at Haywharf in Valletta's Marsamxett Harbour June 25, 2007. Twenty-seven would-be immigrants claiming to be from Somalia were rescued after their makeshift boat started taking on water eight nautical miles north-west of the Maltese islands while on their way to reach European soil from Africa. Two other immigrants died on the boat and their bodies thrown overboard, the immigrants said.
