Eurogroup for Animals reports about our research on Elbeik
"The animals on board the Elbeik vessel will soon be relieved from their sufferings. The vessels reached Cartagena (Spain) last Thursday with 1,600 animals still alive on board. Since the vessel left Tarragona last December heading to Libya, 189 animals have already died.
10 dead bodies were still on board when the Elbeik docked at Cartagena, while another 179 were chopped during the journey and thrown into the Mediterranean sea, declared the vessel’s master. As uncertainty persists on the number of animals effectively loaded in December, the number of animals which died during the journey could even be higher."
