Unsere Seabird sah gestern, wie 4 tunesische Marine- & Nationalgarde-Schiffe ein überfülltes Schlauchboot jagten, umkreisten und ein Kentern riskierten. ~50 Menschen wurden verschleppt. Laut #StateTrafficking droht die Abschiebung in die Wüste oder der Verkauf an Milizen. Tunesien bleibt EU-Partner.
