RESCUERS today carried out their first mission off the coast of Libya since Italy seized two charity ships eight weeks ago.
Sea Watch 3, a vessel operated by German charity Sea Watch, reported at about noon that it had saved close to 100 people, 29 nautical miles from Zawya.
“Several of the rescued people received immediate medical treatment,” Sea Watch tweeted after the rescue.
