Rescuers in Niger have found the decomposed bodies of more than 90 migrants who perished in the Sahara, some of whose corpses had been eaten by jackals.
The victims, nearly all of them women and children, are believed to have died of thirst several weeks ago when their truck broke down as they tried to reach Algeria, according to a senior security source in the West African country.
It is Niger’s worst such tragedy in a decade.
