On\nSaturday morning the German rescue ship ALAN KURDI of the Regensburg NGO\nSea-Eye e. V. was informed of an emergency at sea. The organization Watch the\nMed – Alarmphone received an emergency call from the people on board the\ninflatable boat and forwarded it to the rescue ship and the responsible\nauthorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After\nseveral hours the boat was found around 9:00 a.m. At that point, water was\nalready entering the rubber dinghy, the shell of which was made of thin\nmaterial, similar to truck tarpaulin. There are 8 women and 7 children among\nthe 62 rescued, the youngest child is just six months old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A short\ntime after the rescue, a ship of the so-called Libyan coast guard was also on\nsite and instructed the ALAN KURDI to leave the Libyan search and rescue zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe so-called Libyan coast guard treats the search and rescue zone like territorial waters, repeatedly harasses civilian rescue workers and issues illegal instructions. They do not posess this authority at all and these militia, supported by the EU, are consciously accepting risking human lives,\u201d says head of mission Johanna Pohl from aboard the ship.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Only a\nfew minutes after the first rescue, ALAN KURDI received a call to render assistance\nfrom a cargo ship that had sighted a boat in distress. The ALAN KURDI reached\nthe boat with 16 people on it in the early afternoon and proceeded to evacuate\nthem from the unseaworthy boat. Three of the rescued people were severely\ndehydrated and had to receive medical treatment on board immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even\nthough the allocation of a port of safety for rescue ships has improved in\nrecent weeks, it is still too early to speak of a normalization of sea rescue\naccording to international law standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt is a legal obligation to bring people to a safe place as quickly as possible. Even if we see approaches of a distribution mechanism, the protection of people must be the top priority. The EU and all its member states must support Italy in this and act in solidarity in the European sense. The Mediterranean cannot be left unprotected,\u201d says Sea-Eye spokesman Julian Pahlke.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
After a\nlong phase with bad weather and high seas, the ALAN KURDI set off on January\n17th for the search and rescue area. The ship has been patrolling the central\nMediterranean for the past few days. The German-Spanish crew consists of rescue\nworkers from Sea-Eye and the Spanish aid organization Proem Aid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
