Data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) indicates that 923 individuals have been reported missing in the Mediterranean so far this year. The vast majority of them were navigating the perilous Central Mediterranean route.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the first five months of 2024, there was also a significant increase in irregular border crossings at the\u00a0<strong>Eastern Land Borders<\/strong>, with numbers nearly doubling to 4 450 compared to the same period last year. This increase, while notable, still represents the least active migratory path into the EU among the major routes. However, recent trends suggest that the Eastern Land route is becoming more active, approaching the figures seen on the Western Mediterranean route. The rise in numbers is largely attributed to heightened activity at the border with Belarus, which has seen an increase in attempted crossings, often facilitated by Belarusian authorities. Additionally, on the Ukrainian border, irregular crossings are primarily carried out by Ukrainian citizens circumventing border checks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the Channel route, the number of detections in the first five months of 2024 increased 38% to 21 820.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cde.ual.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/tabla-migracion-frontex.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-152301\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cde.ual.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/tabla-migracion-frontex.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cde.ual.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/tabla-migracion-frontex.png 750w, https:\/\/www.cde.ual.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/tabla-migracion-frontex-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>More information: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontex.europa.eu\/media-centre\/news\/news-release\/eu-external-borders-irregular-border-crossings-fall-23-in-jan-may-OmBdND\">Frontex<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The number of irregular border crossings into the European Union in the first five months of 2024 fell by nearly a quarter (23%) to nearly 80 000, according to preliminary data collected by Frontex.
