ACTIVISTS in cities across Europe and Africa held joint “commemoraction” demonstrations today in solidarity with the family and friends of 91 people who went missing in the central Mediterranean one year ago.
The last contact anybody had with the refugees was early in the morning on February 9 2020, when one of them contacted the emergency distress hotline run by the activist network Alarm Phone.
The activists immediately contacted the Italian, Maltese and Libyan authorities and provided them with the refugees’ boat’s GPS position.
