Libyan coast guard chase in the Mediterranean leaves 1 migrant dead, says NGO

The migrant dinghy capsized during a Libyan coast guard chase, resulting in one death and three rescues among about 30 people, according to the NGO Sea-Watch.

  • One migrant drowned and three were rescued after their dinghy capsized during a chase by the Libyan coast guard in the Mediterranean off the Libyan coast, according to the German non-governmental organization Sea-Watch.
  • The Libyan coast guard tried to intercept a dinghy carrying around 30 people to return them to Libya, but the boat resisted and fled, causing four people to fall into the water due to high waves.
  • Sea-Watch argues that Italy's requirement for permission from the Libyan coast guard for rescue operations violates international law, as the Libyan coast guard forces migrants back to Libya, a country not recognized as safe by Italian courts.
