      It's official: EU formally abdicates any semblance of responsibility for rescue in the Med. The anti-smuggling mission Operation #Sophia will continue but without boats in the water. Though adamantly not its mandate, Op #Sophia vessels saved 10s 1000s of lives. Thread. 1/7pic.twitter.com/D1zN4yb67V

      Judith Sunderland Retweeted Matteo Villa

      As @emmevilla notes, Operation #Sophia hadn’t rescued anyone since July 2018. Why? By all accounts, because Italy, which commands the mission, made it clear they would refuse disembarkation in Italian ports. 2/7https://twitter.com/emmevilla/status/1110910470783946753 …

      ⛔️🚢 SEARCH AND RESCUE AT SEA. Treating Operation #Sophia as an ongoing naval operation until March 31st is misleading. Decision by 🇪🇺 simply removes a smokescreen: NO migrant has been saved by Sophia after July 2018, perfectly in line with 🇮🇹 requests. pic.twitter.com/hLTQZd9jMF

      In January, Germany said it would pull its ship out of Operation #Sophia, with defense minister von der Leyen saying Italy sent the ship to areas of the Med where there were “no smuggling routes whatsoever” and “no refugee routes.” 3/7https://www.dw.com/en/germany-pulls-out-of-mediterranean-migrant-mission-sophia/a-47189097 …

      Operation #Sophia will now only provide aerial surveillance and support for the Libyan Coast Guard. That means more interceptions by Libyan forces and return of women, men, and children to nightmarish conditions and treatment in Libya 4/7 https://www.hrw.org/news/2019/01/21/libya-nightmarish-detention-migrants-asylum-seekers …pic.twitter.com/CAJRiHkqRm

      EU governments have scuttled not only Op #Sophia, but European rescue capacity in the Med broadly. Frontex no longer patrols anywhere near int'l waters off the Libyan coast. Most rescue NGOs are stuck in ports and courts as Italy, Spain, Malta and others block their efforts 5/7pic.twitter.com/jDaIqU0FAw

      Pronouncements about the importance of saving lives at sea, the right to asylum & European values are absolutely meaningless if Europe isn’t willing to take and share responsibility for disembarking rescued people in safe places in Europe. 6/7 https://www.hrw.org/sites/default/files/supporting_resources/action_plan_mediterranean_0.pdf …pic.twitter.com/6ShRA18lzj

          Whatever you thought about Operation #Sophia, this development illustrates starkly the willingness of EU governments to do anything to avoid responsibility for refugees and migrants, and their readiness to condemn women, men and children to abuse in Libya 7/7

          Most of Iranian asylums and #refugees in Turkey are subject to deportation threat. Why are they abandoned by @UNHCRTurkey in this situation? after such a prolonged waiting and current risks, we need urgent resettlement. #IranianRefugeesInTurkey #Resettlement4Iranian @Refugeespic.twitter.com/qVuriwBnys
