Over six weeks ago, 38 people who survived a boat accident near Cape Verde came back to Dakar, Senegal on Monday evening using a military plane, according to officials.
They are part of a group of 101 people who started their trip on July 10th with the goal of reaching the Canary Islands in Spain.
More than 60 people, mostly men from the fishing town of Fass Boye and nearby areas, are believed to have died after their boat drifted in the sea for more than a month.
People in this town are still feeling sad and angry because of the boat accident.
Some people, including family members, told the BBC that they were relieved to know that their loved ones were coming back home alive.
