Wow.

Wonder what the back story is behind this. We get the story of Syrian refugees but our own experience says that smugglers always get involved in this activity. Additionally this movement of people always ends up getting mixed with drugs, sex slaves, etc....

Looks bad but we don't know what we don't know.
