A CIVILIAN refugee-rescue ship was detained in Italy on Sunday night after the authorities accused the crew of “saving too many people.”
The Sea Watch 3 saved the lives of 363 people in the central Mediterranean between February 26 and March 1.
The crew also found another 90 people but, since there was no room left on the ship, they were placed in the Sea Watch 3’s life rafts until the Italian coastguards took care of them.
