Coastguard Rescues 108 Migrants Off Libya
|
[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] Libya’s Coast Guard and the Port Security Agency rescued on Wednesday 108 illegal African migrants colonists who tried to cross the Mediterranean Sea to reach European shores.
Coast guard front man Masoud Ibrahim said they received a distress call and headed directly to the migrants colonists' location.
They were later sent to a naval base in 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...
before the Anti-Illegal Immigration Agency received them, Ibrahim added.
The rescue operation comes only a few days after 130 Europe-bound migrants colonists drowned following a boat wreck in the Mediterranean.
SOS Mediterranee, which operates the rescue vessel Ocean Viking, announced earlier this week rescuing 236 migrants colonists in international waters off Libya’s coast, 32 nautical miles from Zawiya city.
The Marseille-based group reported that the migrants colonists were taken onboard from two overcrowded dinghies.
"Several survivors were weak, dehydrated and are now recovering. Some women suffered mild fuel burns and inhaled fumes," it stated.
