Among the various existing case scenarios within the contexts of DVI, there is also what has recently begun to be called MDVI (Migrant Disaster Victim Identification). This terminology groups together those scenarios characterised by the mass death of migrants during the migration process, including deaths caused by shipwrecks or drowning, violence, exposure to extreme environmental conditions, lack of health care and any other aetiology as long as they occur in transit or on the migratory route. In the last 10 years alone, more than 30,000 migrants have died trying to reach Europe (mostly in shipwrecks in the Mediterranean), of which more than 23,000 have not been identified.
