We stand in solidarity with @RefugeesinLibya and continue to demand the end of the cooperation of the German government and Frontex with the Libyan coast guard. The evacuation of refugees from inhumane camps is non-negotiable. (1/3)

After being at sea for two days and drifting aimlessly for many hours, 45 people could be found by the #Nadir crew at night – thanks to an alert by @alarm_phone . The boat was then towed northbound by Nadir until eventually all people were rescued by the Guardia di Finanza.

🟠 UPDATE: Also on day 2 after the rescue, Malta and Italy refused to send a ship to evacuate the people. In the evening hours, #Nadir then was assigned Lampedusa as a safe port. Just now, all 34 rescued were able to safely disembark there. (1/3)

Our crew finally managed to safely take all people on board the #Nadir . We now demand the immediate evacuation of the people to a bigger ship and a port of saftey! Nadir is NOT a rescue ship, it can only provide first aid. Updates to come. (3/3) #MonitoringTheMed

🟠 (1/2) Nadir supported over 600 ppl the last 2 days. The situation in the Mediterranean remains intolerable and deadly! While European states continue to rely on isolation, 100s of people are in distress every day. People experiencing racist violence, torture, & exploitation.

🔴 Alerted by @PVolontaires , #Nadir was able to locate a highly unseaworthy metal boat with 44 people, incl. 4 babies and 12 women. Lots of water was entering the boat, so our crew evacuated most of them on our life rafts. Later, everyone got rescued by IT Coastguard.

110 people who fled Libya on an overcrowded boat had alerted @alarm_phone about being in distress. Over 50 of them were crammed in the narrow lower deck and had problems breathing, one person at times lost consciousness, when #Nadir found them early this morning. 📸 Andrea Finkel

(1/2) Our crew returns to the Mediterranean Sea today. This marks the start of our fourth rotation this year. The last three were characterized by sleepless non-stop operations - this year only, we were able to support around 1400 people at sea.
