The 'Humanity 1' crew observed a minute of silence to pay tribute to this young victim. The body, as well as the mother and brother, were quickly evacuated by the Italian authorities to Lampedusa. On board the NGO ship are currently 183 migrants, including pregnant women, children and people suffering from burns caused by the fuel. The ship was heading Wednesday morning to the port of Livorno, allocated by the MRCC in Rome the day before with an ETA as of May 30.

The Unified Command has cleared a 400-foot-wide swath of the federal channel on May 20, permitting all pre-collapse, deep-draft commercial vessels transit of the Port of Baltimore. The Unified Command continued to clear wreckage from the bottom of the Patapsco River, in hopes to fully restore the Fort McHenry Federal Channel to its original 700-foot width and 50-foot depth by June 8-10. The continued work involves digging out the bottom cord of the “section four” truss seen in the water here, which will be cut into three sections to safely lift.
