It is a fleeting moment of happiness that thousands in North Africa still dream of nowadays, harassed by the hardships of the failed so-called Arab Spring revolutions a decade ago. Mabrouka Houachi, 37, his wife and five children, the oldest of which was left paraplegic after being run over, were among the roughly 23,000 Tunisians who made the perilous dash for the exit via the choppy waters of the Mediterranean.
