Malta rescues 216 migrants in upsurge of Mediterranean crossings
This is stupidity squared and cubed, because they know where it leads.
[AlAhram] A Maltese armed forces patrol boat picked up more than 200 migrants colonists from two dinghies in the Mediterranean and was bringing them to Malta on Saturday, a front man said.

At least one pregnant woman and a number of children were believed to be among the 216 rescued migrants colonists. Their nationality was not known.

An AFM front man said a patrol boat had been deployed to a sinking dinghy south of Malta on Friday. After picking up the migrants colonists, it was diverted to a second dinghy while on its way to Malta, picking up those migrants colonists as well.

The armed forces said that with good weather conditions prevailing, departures of migrants colonists from Libya, Tunisia, and Algeria had increased in the past two days, resulting in 12 migrant boats arriving in Sicily, Sardinia, and Lampedusa.

The Libyan coasties said on Friday it had rescued 290 migrants colonists from inflatable rafts near the capital Tripoli
...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn...
