AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL called on the Italian authorities today to drop legal proceedings against activists from refugee rescue ship the Iuventa.
Between August 2016 and August 2017, the vessel’s crew saved the lives of more than 14,000 people in the central Mediterranean.
The Italian authorities began spying on them in September 2016, before seizing the Iuventa four years ago.
