Dozens of migrants are feared to have drowned after their boat capsized in the Mediterranean sea en route from Libya to Italy with the Coast Guard allegedly not turning up.
According to the NGO Alarm Phone, dozens of migrants are feared to have drowned today, Sunday, March 12, after their boat went adrift in the Mediterranean sea. “We are shocked. According to various sources, dozens of people from this ship have drowned,”, the organisation wrote on its Twitter account.
“As of 2:28 a.m. on March 11, the authorities were informed of the urgency and danger of the situation. The Italian authorities deliberately delayed the rescue, leaving them to die”, they continued.
The NGO had previously reported that it was in contact with a boat with 47 people on board that was adrift after leaving the Libyan coast in the direction of Italy. It also warned that the weather conditions were very dangerous and that: “an immediate rescue is necessary”.
Another NGO, Sea Watch, also raised the alarm about the situation of these people and the risk posed by the intense waves. It reported that a merchant ship near the boat was ordered by Italy to wait for the Libyan Coast Guard because they were not equipped for a rescue operation: “but the Libyan Coast Guard did not show up”.
The Libyan authorities themselves confirmed to Sea Watch that they would not send any vessels. “When we called the Italian rescue coordination centre to ask who would take over the coordination and take responsibility for these people, they hung up on us”, Sea Watch said.
“Italy and the EU countries must take responsibility for the rescue at sea and protect the lives of people on the move. Now, immediately, in this case, in all cases”, Sea Watch tweeted.
I’ll say it/ask it before anyone else….
Is it ok to not give a damn about this? Or even laugh about this?
I doubt the Libyan Coast Guard was very diverse, so I doubt they would want to have been rescued by them anyway.
No motto/chant for #ELM. “STAY HOME, DON’T DROWN!”. Think Ferguson.
Are you human?
I wouldn’t laugh. It is a tragedy. People lost their lives.
But I will say this: The blood of these people is on the hands of the Leftists who encourage it.
Haha, oops I mean that’s awful.
At least wait till you find out if they are all muslim men of military service ages.

Well, Italy’s OUTSTANDING leader Georgia Malonie told those nasty NGOs that no more illegal alien invaders would be allowed to land on Italian shores. She’s smart enough to not allow them to do tricks like “at-sea-emergencies”. Let Sea Watch take care of their own human cargo.
Sharks need to eat.

Translation Lession: NGO >> Human Trafficking Operation
That is all that NGOs do, and thankfully Italy is FINALLY starting to deal with them.
“I doubt the Libyan Coast Guard was very diverse, so I doubt they would want to have been rescued by them anyway.”
Yea it’s written funny, but the way human trafficking works there, it is up to the ITALIAN Coast Guard to ‘rescue’ migrants dropped into the Mediterranean...and then bring them to ITALY, not Libya.
The difference is that the Leftists DON’T CARE!!
FTA: “Italy and the EU countries must take responsibility for the rescue at sea and protect the lives of people on the move. Now, immediately, in this case, in all cases...”
No, it’s not the responsibility of Italy or the EU. It’s the responsibility of whomever operated the boat and the country that let them sail.
Who really “fears” it?
Sure am.
And your phony compassion and virtue signaling is the reason that 5,000,000 and counting have crossed and are crossing our borders, over 400,000 anchor babies were born in this country…I’m betting that number is at least 1,000,000 this year…and that 1000 illegals are rushing a checkpoint in ElPaso right now and why AMLO is happy with Biden and wants us all to vote for democrats.

The bills for these millions haven’t come due yet. They’re going to.
When schools have to hire interpreters and bi-lingual teachers for who the hell
Knows what language, property taxes are going to the main
So, at the end of the day, if those migrants had kept their happy butts at home, they’d still be alive.
Don’t care
Yes they do. So do the crabs
Its been made clear time and time again many “migrants” are not human.
