Papierlose Zeitung: «Hery up please ???»: Das Protokoll einer Seenotrettung

“Am 9. September 2015 meldet sich eine syrische Frau per Whatsapp beim Schichtteam der unabhängigen Hotline für Flüchtlinge in Seenot Watch the Med Alarmphone. Sie befindet sich auf einem Boot in der Nähe von Lesbos. Der Motor streikt. Die hier publizierte Whatsapp-Kommunikation gibt eindrucksvolle Einblicke in die wertvolle Arbeit des Alarmphone und macht die Verwerflichkeit der europäischen Grenzpolitik deutlich, die Geflüchtete in solch lebensgefährliche und nur zu oft tödliche Situationen bringt.”

Alarmphone on X

🆘 We were called by 36 people in distress between #Tobruk & #Crete. JRCC Cairo ordered the merchant vessel NV MARLIN with destination #Egypt to rescue. The people initially refused as they want to reach a safe place. However they are now on the vessel, headed to an unsafe place.

🆘 ~ 93 people in distress off #Crete!
We are in contact with the group who escaped #Libya and is now drifting in a boat just 14 miles south of #Crete. They told us they have been at sea for 3 days and are without food or water. @HCoastGuard: bring them to land without delay!

🆘 ~30 people in distress in the Central #Mediterranean! RCC #Malta informed about a rescue operation last night. But so far, nobody from this group has been disembarked in Malta. We fear a #pushback. Where are they?
