Resum
Currently, we are witnesses in Europe of the greatest number of displacements recorded in history, as a result of persecution, armed conflicts, violence or the economic and social instability prevailing in the Middle East and in many African countries and South Asia. These facts, together with the proximity to the European coasts have meant that in recent times the Central Mediterranean route has become the most used by migrants to reach Europe. The magnitude of this phenomenon has become so high, that together with the important number of lives that have been lost at sea, have caused that the international community reacts mightly launching the OPERATION EUNAVFOR MED SOPHIA. The objective of this article is to provide knowledge on this reality that involves immigration through maritime routes, logistics and medical aspects related to the care and assistance to migrants on board of the Spanish Navy vessels, and review the published literature on the theme.
