Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

Father Mari, embarked on the Mediterranean Sea, 20 kilometres from the Sicilian coast, has rescued 112 migrants from different countries. However, the authorities have not given them permission to land in a safe port, and to change it, many rescued people have begun a hunger strike. The aim is to introduce pressure so that they can dock as soon as possible. Father Mari, with capacity for 100 people, has warned that some are now overnight on the ground; some migrants have been on board for six days waiting for them to land.

They also report that the situation inside the boat is “increasingly serious” and that tensions and clashes between rescued people are increasing. In fact, four rescues have received people from different countries and cultures, including Ethiopia, Libya, Morocco and Eritrea. They call on the authorities to authorise berthing in a safe place, first.

"I took the migrants in the car and took them off the roads that the police could be on."
Aritz takes many migrants in her car so they don't get run over, so they don't get lost in the darkness of the night and they can safely go back and forth. It is particularly reminiscent of the woman who helped her cross the border between Irun and Hendaia and slept in her house... [+]
