Mboro-Sur-Mer : 53 migrants secourus après la panne de moteur de leur embarcation
On Thursday, October 15, 2026, at dawn, off the coast of the fishing village of Mboro-sur-Mer, in the commune of Darou Khoudoss (Tivaouane department), a rescue operation assisted fifty-three individuals attempting irregular migration, including 52 Senegalese and one Malian. Their boat reportedly ran into trouble after its single engine failed.
Sources indicate that the incident occurred around 4:00 AM, approximately 200 meters from the area's new fishing pier. The pirogue carrying the migrants was immobilized due to a breakdown of its only engine. The gendarmerie, firefighters from Tivaouane, and fishermen were mobilized for the rescue operation.
The 53 rescued individuals were taken to the Mboro gendarmerie brigade. Sources indicate that some occupants fled after disembarking. Fortunately, no fatalities have been reported at this time. An investigation is underway.
