Sea-Watch International, a prominent rescue group, has strongly criticised the European Union’s migration policy after releasing a video depicting a distressing incident in the Mediterranean. The footage, captured from Sea-Watch’s Seabird vessel, reveals a migrant and refugee boat coming under attack by the Libyan coast guard.

As the dinghy is struck, individuals onboard are seen falling into the water, desperately swimming towards a nearby Libyan ship for safety. Reports suggest that dozens were aboard the vessel when it was hit. Sea-Watch labeled the incident as a result of the “brutal and daily disgusting migration policy of the European Union.”
