Local authorities have become overwhelmed after a wave of arrivals trying to reach European shores during recent days.

最近幾天，在一波試圖到達歐洲海岸的移民潮之後，地方當局已經不堪重負。

A wave of people fleeing from mainly African countries arrived earlier this week before the camp of 23 tents with capacity for just 200 people were set up alongside an old military warehouse with reception centers across the island stretched to capacity.

本週早些時候，一波主要來自非洲國家的逃難者抵達，然後在一箇舊的軍事倉庫旁建立了23頂帳篷的營地，僅能容納200人，全島的接待中心已捉襟見肘。

Some have been stuck on the dock for days.

有的已經在碼頭上停留了好幾天。

The situation is a similar scene elsewhere on the continent, stressing pictures were released by the Spanish Open arms NGO this week of a dinghy carrying around 100 migrants rescued as they crossed the Mediterranean.

這種情況在非洲大陸的其他地方也有類似的場景，強調西班牙的非政府組織Open arms本週發佈了一張照片，照片中一艘載有約100名移民的小艇在穿越地中海時獲救。

Six bodies were later pulled from the sea, including that the six month old baby named Joseph I Loathe Video was released by open arms in order to remind people of the dangers encountered by migrants during these treacherous ocean crossings.

後來有6具屍體被從海里拉了出來，其中包括那個名叫約瑟夫我厭惡視頻的6個月大的嬰兒被張開雙臂放了出來，以提醒人們移民在這些險惡的海洋橫渡中遇到的危險。

Although with heightened security in the Mediterranean, more migrants are trying the Atlantic route.

雖然隨著地中海安全的加強，更多的移民正在嘗試大西洋航線。

Gran Canaria and the other Canary Islands lie around 60 miles off Morocco's west coast on the number of migrant journeys, has seen a 10 fold jump this year, 15,404 people have so far braved the perilous Atlantic crossing.

大加那利島和其他加那利群島位於距離摩洛哥西海岸60英里左右的移民旅程數量，今年已經出現了10倍的增長，至今已有15404人勇敢地穿越了危險的大西洋。

But that number is still far from the peak of more than 30,000 arrivals in 2006.

但這一數字與2006年3萬多人次的高峰期相比，還相差甚遠。
