Rescued! Yesterday, 40 people contacted Alarm Phone when in distress in the central Mediterranean. The #Aurora of @Seawatch_intl stabilised the boat until the Italian coastguard arrived, bringing all survivors safely to #Lampedusa!
🔵 Le 50 persone in pericolo in fuga dalla #Libia, segnalate da @alarm_phone nel #Mediterraneo centrale, sono state soccorse dall’unità veloce @MVLouiseMichel e sbarcate al sicuro ieri sera a Porto Empedocle. Ancora una volta è stata la Flotta civile a salvare le loro vite.
A year ago, 8 people were murdered in an illegal #pushback operation by @HCoastGuard. The group first arrived on the island of #Inousses on July 8th. A day later, they were found in life rafts in front of the #Turkish island of Kara Ada.
