Hcoastguard pushed back groups who contacted us- AlarmPhone
AlarmPhone has accused Hcoastguard of pushing back six groups who contacted the organisation.
Alarm Phone made the allegation while providing information about 22 distressed people in urgent need.
“22 people in urgent distress near #Lesvos, #Greece. We informed @HCoastGuard that water is entering the boat,” AlarmPhone said, adding that: “The group reports a military boat near them. They say that the boat is not assisting and instead pushing them further away from the coast.”
AlarmPhone added that: “#Turkish authorities confirmed they found the group, who were pushed back to #Türkiye! Already in the first week of December, the @Hcoastguard have pushed back 6 groups who contacted Alarm Phone. When will they stop playing these deadly games with people’s lives?” #StopPushbacks!
