أَنْقَذَتِ الْبَحْرِيَّةُ الْمُورِيتَانِيَّةُ، صَبَاحَ السَّبْتِ ٣١ أُكْتُوبَرَ ٢٠٢٦، ١٣٤َ شَخْصًا كَانُوا عَلَى مَتْنِ قَارِبٍ قُرْبَ مِينَاءِ نُوَاذِيبُو. وَكَانَ الْقَارِبُ يَتَّجِهُ نَحْوَ جُزُرِ الْكَنَارِي، وَهِيَ جُزُرٌ إِسْبَانِيَّةٌ فِي الْمُحِيطِ الْأَطْلَسِيِّ.
وَذَكَرَ الْجَيْشُ الْمُورِيتَانِيُّ أَنَّ الْمَجْمُوعَةَ ضَمَّتْ ١١٨َ رَجُلًا وَ١٤َ امْرَأَةً وَطِفْلَيْنِ. وَكَانَ أَفْرَادُهَا مِنْ جِنْسِيَّاتٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ، لَكِنَّ الْبَيَانَ لَمْ يُسَمِّ بُلْدَانَهُمْ. وَوَقَعَتِ الْعَمَلِيَّةُ فِي الْقَنَاةِ الْبَحْرِيَّةِ لِمِينَاءِ نُوَاذِيبُو.
وَقَالَ الْجَيْشُ إِنَّ الْبَحْرِيَّةَ تَعْمَلُ عَلَى إِنْقَاذِ الْأَرْوَاحِ فِي الْبَحْرِ، وَمُوَاجَهَةِ شَبَكَاتِ تَهْرِيبِ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ. وَلَمْ تَذْكُرِ الْمَصَادِرُ مَا حَدَثَ لِلرُّكَّابِ بَعْدَ إِنْقَاذِهِمْ.
وَخِلَالَ نَفْسِ عُطْلَةِ نِهَايَةِ الْأُسْبُوعِ، وَصَلَ ٤٥٣َ شَخْصًا إِلَى جُزُرِ الْكَنَارِي عَلَى مَتْنِ أَرْبَعَةِ قَوَارِبَ، بَيْنَ مَسَاءِ السَّبْتِ وَصَبَاحِ الْأَحَدِ. وَتُظْهِرُ هَذِهِ الْأَخْبَارُ أَنَّ الطَّرِيقَ الْبَحْرِيَّ بَيْنَ غَرْبِ إِفْرِيقِيَا وَالْجُزُرِ مَا زَالَ نَشِطًا. وَهِيَ رِحْلَةٌ طَوِيلَةٌ وَخَطِيرَةٌ.

Mauritania’s Navy Rescues 134 People Near Nouadhibou
On the morning of Saturday, October 31, 2026, Mauritania’s navy rescued 134 people aboard a boat near the port of Nouadhibou. The boat was heading toward the Canary Islands, Spanish islands in the Atlantic Ocean.
The Mauritanian military said the group included 118 men, 14 women, and two children. They were of different nationalities, but the statement did not name their countries. The operation took place in Nouadhibou’s sea channel.
The military said the navy works to save lives at sea and confront networks that smuggle migrants. Sources did not say what happened to the passengers after their rescue.
During the same weekend, 453 people reached the Canary Islands aboard four boats, between Saturday evening and Sunday morning. These reports show that the sea route between western Africa and the islands remains active. It is a long and dangerous journey.
