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?
Tuttavia, i momenti di perdita e lutto devono essere rispettati e chiediamo, dunque, maggiore cura, rispetto e responsabilità nella realizzazione e nella pubblicazione di immagini che mostrano i rifugiati.
Alarm Phone chiede l’immediato trasferimento di tutti i rifugiati arrivati sull’isola militare di Farmakonisi – i viaggiatoti bloccati sull’isola devono far fronte a condizioni inumane
"Anche se ci confrontiamo con la forte disperazione e sofferenza umana in questi momenti di difficoltà, siamo stati anche ispirati innumerevoli volte dalla volontà di continuare la lotta e di attraversare il mare e di potersi muovere poi verso le destinazioni desiderate in tutta Europa"
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
⚫ Shipwreck in the Central Med. On 1 April at 11:50h, Alarm Phone alerted authorities to a boat with 75 people. When rescue arrived, 8 people had already died, 11 others died before reaching land. Some survivors are in critical condition. Another crime by the EU border regime!
⚫ Shipwrecks in at least 3 border regions of Europe, just today. Shipwrecks have led to the loss of many lives in the Aegean, the central Med & the Channel.
How much longer will we have to witness these EU border atrocities?
Our solidarity with all those who lost loved ones.
🆘 We were alerted by 47 people stranded on the #Didon oil platform, among them a pregnant woman. The weather is very bad, people's lives are at risk. They are afraid of interception and a forced return to #Libya. We have informed authorities and demand a rescue to a safe place!
