Risks Rise for Migrants and Rescuers in the Mediterranean

The article addresses the increasing threats and harassment faced by migrants crossing the Mediterranean Sea by Libyan groups. The organization "S.O.S Mediterranean" condemned this rise in hostile acts, including attempts to intercept ships, the use of hostile boats affiliated with armed Libyan groups, and violent attacks such as ramming boats. The organization also pointed to an increase in migrant deaths in the Mediterranean waters, with 821 people dying in the first four months of the year—an increase of 111% compared to the same period last year—despite a 46% decrease in the number of migrants arriving. The organization called for independent investigations following previous attacks on rescue ships and affirmed that European policies have helped reduce the number of crossings, but the situation remains dangerous for migrants' lives.
