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
The attack by Italy on the rescue organisation @RescueMed for adhering to maritime law is cynical. The first ship of the #JusticeFleet faces 60 days of detention & a 10k fine for rescuing people to the Italian shore. Our full solidarity with #Mediterranea!
🆘 URGENT!
70 people in distress off #Libya!
Last night we received calls from people on a deflating rubber boat, they reported people in the water, we immediately informed authorities. The phone numbers of the so-called Libyan coastguard are not responsive.
Rescue is needed NOW!
Da due giorni @alarm_phone ha segnalato alle Autorità libiche e italiane il caso di un’imbarcazione con 38 persone, salpate in fuga da #Bengasi l’11 novembre scorso. Sono ancora in mare alla deriva. Serve un soccorso subito!
