The Daily Telegraph

The last foreign airline operating in Libya has suspended all flights to and from the country, cutting Tripoli off from the world by air as it slides further into chaos.

Turkish Airlines said yesterday that it had suspended flights to Misrata, its only remaining destination in Libya, after it had earlier cancelled its flights to the capital, Tripoli, and to Benghazi and the inland desert city of Sebha.

IOM Staff in Italy Report on “Ghost Ship” Trend, Meet with Rescued Migrants

Italy – The spectre of large, disposable crafts bearing hundreds of migrants across dangerous waters in the new year was borne out in terrifying fashion this past week as more than 1,000 migrants, most fleeing Syria, had to be rescued in the Mediterranean Sea.

According to survivors’ accounts, the crews of both vessels deliberately abandoned men, women and children aboard, setting courses for the Italian coastline despite the very real possibility that hundreds might drown.

Operation Triton – winter developments

Winter used to bring some respite for those agencies responsible for controlling Europe’s long Mediterranean borders. For each of the last ten years, irregular migration has slowed or even stopped in the run-up to Christmas, with the people smugglers largely confined to port by the rough seas. Not any more, it seems.

Lady SOS — the first call for Syrians in peril at sea

A 27-year-old woman in Sicily has emerged as the unlikely saviour of thousands of Syrians who risk their lives sailing through winter storms in the Mediterranean to escape the civil war devastating their country.

As they drift in unpiloted ships, often without fuel or food and buffeted by giant waves, many migrants use the last credit on their phones to seek assistance from Nawal Soufi, an Italian-Moroccan activist based in Catania, who is known among Syrians as “Lady SOS”. Weiterlesen »

Le nuove rotte delle navi alla deriva L’Italia tratta con Grecia e Turchia

ROMA C’è un doppio canale di trattativa aperto dall’Italia per fermare i mercantili carichi di migranti che arrivano dalla Turchia. Uno si rivolge direttamente alle autorità di Ankara e ha già avuto un primo contatto “tecnico» a Roma nei giorni scorsi per trovare una linea comune in modo da fronteggiare partenze e arrivi. L’altro mira alla Grecia e alla necessità che vengano pattugliate in maniera più efficace quelle coste, ma anche che i natanti schierati nel mar Ionio rispondano agli Sos lanciati dagli scafisti per costringere i mezzi di soccorso ad andare a prendere gli stranieri quando sono in balia delle onde.

The man on crutches from Homs was in no doubt about the message he wanted to send to the world.
