Alarmphone on X

Five weeks ago, Alarm Phone responded to a distress situation off #Libya. What then ensued was a disastrous failure of rescue coordination, leading to several deaths & forced returns to Libya. Read our joint report with SOS Mediterranee! @SOSMedIntl

🆘 ca. 40 people in distress in the Central Med!
We were alerted about a boat with ca. 40 people on board who fled from Qarabulli, #Libya on Thursday night. Unfortunately we have no news and don't know what happened to them. Authorities are alerted and should search for the boat!

🆘 44 people in distress in Maltese/Italian Search and Rescue zone!

The people say they have been at sea for 6 days already and have no water left. We have informed relevant authorities and urge them to rescue without further delay!
