West Africa migration: Sharp rise in people trying to reach Europe

There’s been a sharp rise in undocumented West African migrants trying to reach Europe.
So far this year, at least 5,000 people have died trying to reach Spain by sea.
But despite the dangers, many continue to make the crossing in the hopes of a better life.

Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reports from Kartong, in The Gambia.
