The bodies of 74 migrants washed ashore in western Libya Tuesday, the latest among thousands of refugees who drown every year trying to cross the Mediterranean to Europe; more than 4500 died last year and another 228 victims last month. The people above were lucky; a Spanish rescue ship picked them up on Saturday. (David Ramos/Getty Images)
