Traveling by smugglers boats is very dangerous.

 听写
 People pay smugglers up to 150 dollars to make the traitorous treacherous journey which usually ends up being a nightmare and often fatal. Pagonis says survivors tell her refithorrific tales of brutality about passengers being beaten, stabbed and rateraped. She says many people are have drowned after smugglers have enforced them to jump into the sea before arriving on the coast of Yemen. “What we’ve been trying to point out to people are the dangers of crossing. When you have refugees who are fleeing, it’s one of these tricky situations, you can’t say we don’t encourage you to leave your, you know, own country because the risk is really great, people who are fleeing for their lives are gonna take, whatever means they can to get out of there. And we just need to point out the risk to them, the running that they make will lose their lives.” Pagonis says the UNHCR has been calling for increased action to save lives in the Gulf of Aden/ and other waters. She says the agency is stepping up an information campaign to inform refugees of the dangers of traveling in smugglers’ boats.
