It's becoming an epidemic of misery.<br/> <br />Boat after boat traveling illegally to Europe via Italy's deadly waters faces an at-sea emergency.<br/> <br />On Thursday, the Italian Coast Guard rescued 700 migrants off the coast of Lampedusa.<br/> <br />Fresh video from the rescue shows a black rubber dingy loaded with about 95 migrants as the Coast Guard approaches.<br/> <br />Days later, the Coast Guard intercepts this migrant boat off the Sicilian coast, this time carrying 137 migrants.<br/> <br />Such rescue and recovery operations are raising concerns in Europe surrounding the issue, which only seems to be getting worse.<br/> <br />Italy has upped its surveillance in the seas between Libya, Tunisia, and Italy, since more than 360 primarily Eritrean migrants drowned in early October, and a second boat sank a week later, leaving 200 missing.
