HVNL: "Bootvluchtelingen redden vanuit de huiskamer"

“Duizenden vluchtelingen proberen dagelijks vanuit Noord-Afrika de oversteek te maken naar Europa, in gammele en overvolle bootjes. Als ze in de problemen komen, kunnen ze bellen met de hulplijn van de internationale groep ‘Watch the Med(iterranean)’. Grote kans dat ze dan Nederlandse vrijwilligers aan de lijn krijgen, bijvoorbeeld Joyce en Teun.”

The people on board, who are trying to escape from #Libya, report of high waves and we fear for their lives. Relevant authorities are informed: Rescue these people to safety before it is too late!

🆘 ~125 lives at risk in the Central Med! We alerted authorities to 2 boats escaping #Libya with approx. 60 & 65 people on board, incl. children. They report that they're adrift & the wind is strong. We lost contact hours ago & fear for their lives. Rescue without further delay!

🆘Where are they? 45 people missing in the Central Med!
We alerted about a boat with ~45 people on board who left on a metal boat from Tunisia on Wednesday night and are missing ever since. We hope they will be found and brought to safety - our thoughts are with their loved ones.
