25 children, others distressed at Lesvos
Forty nine people including 25 children were in the early hours of today distressed at sea near Lesvos.
AlarmPhone disclosed this adding that it alerted Hcoastguard about the development.
“49 people, including 25 children in distress at sea close to #Lesvos!
We alerted @Hcoastguard who confirmed they received the alert but gave no details of a rescue operation. We have now lost contact with the people and fear another #pushback to #Türkiye,” AlarmPhone said.
After about two hours after making the above information public, AlarmPhone gave an update. “The #Turkish Coast Guard has confirmed they found the group, who will now be taken to #Türkiye. Another dangerous #pushback by the @Hcoastguard, who continue to disregard their duty to rescue boats in distress and instead risk people’s lives for political games. #StopPushbacks!”
