Default Italy Illegal migrants stuck on a boat since June

The German Charity Captain
should not have entered Italian Waters.


[Italy's Interior Minister Matteo Salvini
has accused migrant rescue
charities of aiding human trafficking ]


[The vessel, operated by Sea-Watch,
a German charity,
rescued 53 migrants off the
coast of Libya on 12 June.
Italian authorities have already taken
in 13 of them for health reasons.
Ship captain Carola Rackete said
Sea-Watch had tried to co-operate with the
authorities, engaging with Italy,
Germany, Malta and France
and opening contacts with the
European Commission.
However, after two weeks in limbo,
Sea-Watch said the boat was forced
to enter Italian waters since there
was no other option left to ensure
the migrants' safety.]
