Het jaar is voorbij gevlogen. Daarom op de laatste dag van het jaar een kleine #terugblik in 12 beelden. Bekijk hier hoe onze teams dankzij jouw steun hulp hebben kunnen bieden in #2019. Fijne jaarwisseling! https://t.co/QG7QFy4WWD
BREAKING A woman who had been under close observation for 48 hours in the #OceanViking’s clinic has just been medically evacuated by Italian authorities, with her 1,5 y/o child & her sister. All 159 survivors remaining onboard also need a swift disembarkation as per maritime law.
Right now the temperature in #Vucjak camp in #Bosnia is -1 and the first snow has fallen. 600 people still stay in tents, many of them don't even have socks or proper shoes. Vucjak doesn't meet any humanitarian standards & puts people's well-being in danger, it should close now!
What was supposed to be an assessment in #Beledweyne#Somalia immediately turned into an🚑emergency response. We were able to transport supplies of therapeutic food, tents, and non-food items. We also built latrines and trucked in safe drinking water. https://t.co/r9yaphQO0m
No valid statistical link btw likelihood that migrants will be rescued at sea and nr of attempted Mediterranean crossings. Findings challenge widespread claim in Europe that NGO search and rescue activity has been a pull factor for migrants https://t.co/6r5zjCH7b1 @linda_polman
🔴BREAKING: The #OceanViking has just rescued 94 people from a rubber boat in distress. Survivors include 11 women – four of whom are pregnant – as well as 6 very young children.
