Preview

European Union leaders are considering a plan to fix Europes migrant shipwreck crisis. The leaders proposed taking military action to destroy smugglers boats in Africa so they cannot be used to take refugees across the Mediterranean Sea.

The leaders of 28 EU countries met in Brussels Thursday. They discussed the shipwreck of last weekend in which at least 800 people drowned. Rescuers only saved 28 people from the migrant ship. It crashed into a Portuguese ship that was sent to rescue it.

A draft EU statement called for more money to support Europes search and rescue operations. It also called for efforts to capture and destroy vessels before they are used by traffickers.
