For the past year, I have been embedded with the first search and rescue NGO (MOAS - Migrant Offshore Aide Station) to operate in the Mediterranean and Aegean specifically to save the lives of migrants and refugees attempting to cross the Mediterranean and Aegean seas. The images reveal the horrific conditions people endure to flee conflict and poverty - not all make the crossing alive as seen in the image with a Syrian mother and her two dead children who drowned when the boat they were on capsized.
