Following accounts given by the survivors, why was a rescue operation not immediately started by the Turkish Coast Guard after it first arrived on scene at the GPS location?
We ask for that in order to respect the dignity of the victims/survivors but also to maintain dignity ourselves, so that we can create a community and society in which the privacy and dignity of all people are valued and respected.

Alarm Phone Press Release, 5th of August 2015 Distress at sea and endangered lives due to coastguard actions? Evidence shows attacks on migrant boats in the Aegean Sea where engines were removed and boats punctured by coastguards
Unsere Seabird Flugzeugcrew hat gerade ein Boot in Not gefunden, gemeldet von @alarm_phone. ≈50 Menschen, 3 Babys. Heute Nacht drohen 2m Wellen; es läuft Gefahr zu sinken. Das Handelsschiff ESTRELLA ist in der Nähe & muss reagieren oder die Menschen werden wahrscheinlich sterben
We are super happy to know that the people we sighted from our aircraft, Seabird 3, were finally rescued by @emergency_ong yesterday. The people were at sea for 4 days without any rescue from authorities, what a disgrace.
