July 26, 2020 "We are dying". It is the desperate cry of the 95 people on board a failed boat in the Sar Maltese area. Alarm Phone reports that he has been in contact with migrants since the night."They say they cannot remove the water from the boat because it is overcrowded. They shout: 'we are dying!'", Writes the organization. "The Maridive230 merchant ship is about 20 miles from the boat and could be ordered to help - reads a tweet - but the Maltese armed forces are not responding to our calls". And even the Italian ones are informed, says the NGO which traces the position of the boats in danger at sea.
However, there are two boats in difficulty in the Mediterranean since this night. Alarm Phone is always the alarm.
On the Maridive230 merchant ship are "95 people at risk of drowning in the Sar area of Malta - reads in the 2 o'clock tweet this night. The situation on board is critical".
"Another boat in danger - they write in a subsequent tweet with 45 people fleeing Libya called Alarm Phone tonight. They are in the Sar area of Malta and are asking for immediate help."
A total of 140 people would therefore be in danger in the Mediterranean Sea.
