thousands of migrants have died trying to reach europe by crossing the mediterranean from libya many thousands more have been saved from certain death by n.g.o.s search and rescue vessels so why do countries want to stop those ships from giving aid to the troops at the maritime lol when the alternative is a libyan coast guard with a record of a resting shooting at those it's supposed to be helping. to see to find out.

migration and how to best respond to it and control it has become one of europe's most complex and hotly debated problems. the arguments have been loudest around the central mediterranean and the dangerous which is between libya and its in which many thousands of migrants have crossed with the help of people smuggling as. for the last five years e.u. navies have maintained a presence to discard people from making the journey the libyan coast guard has also stepped up patrols with the backing of an anti migrant government and it's only. that become more active in trying to stem the human tight both the e.u. and libyan authorities insist their actions save lives but the methods focus mainly

on to terence are odds with those of other groups operating in the area since two thousand and thirteen n.g.o.s whose only aim is to aid migrants in peril and see. the differences came to a head this year when the libyan coast guard clashed with rescue vessels from two banjos provocative open arms and s.o.s. meditate i met. with access to both sides with been to examine the implications for humanitarian operations in the area. and. just look through. the work of our living out that what you have to share is tough but i assure you i will do fifteen minutes of the house so often that the patient being just. walk out followed go by and go back and yet they are so often that they fish jackie.

was. out. so up. there in the kind of vision has been a coast guard since two thousand and twelve he trained in russia and then had a successful career in the libyan navy now he is greatly feared by people smugglers . lamb and the full month of the battle called the libya with only a thin it didn't mean how to sew or hello i'm not going to feel i'm a scheme i'm a. clean job a month i'm not going to have the and i would lose my house to sew a home or a hospital if it didn't start until in june i got to most of the middle political solution rather than savannah model at the time so that you knew. who know to me parliament lingo almost allegiance to much. after the revolution and twenty eleven

libya became a favored departure point for europe and migrants the numbers steadily rose until reaching a peak tween twenty fifteen and twenty seven this year although many thousands have attempted the crossing the human tide between libya and italy has begun to recede. we tracked down a middle man to have to agree to speak to us anonymously he told us the decline is because the journey has become much more difficult. we do we disarm all you don't you get war. because these are two new ones you conclusions don't you don't know you know i'm so worried about you you have no. job or these people are stupid no. so do you are adoption computer to twenty eleven triggered to work turn a child into a faulty mostly twenty fifteen sixteen no we just ruled the world and it takes time money and probably takes months.

we met up with oscar counts the founder of a spanish angio proactive open arms he has had direct experience of the libyan coast guards increasingly hostile approach to n.g.o.s gratian says he says the relationship began to turn sour and twenty seventeen. feet from i am. a little while if you get with. us you know. one incident happened on the seventh of august twenty seventh the libyan coast guard patrol boat number six five four fired warning shots at the gulf a rescue vessel being leased by product of the open arms the ngo told us that the ship was at least twelve nautical miles away from the libyan coast and outside its

territorial waters. but. nevertheless ten days later there was another incident involving the same vessel. the gulf was again stopped at sea and this time to accompany the libyan coast into tripoli harbor on suspicion of operating within libyan territory. as a result of this much publicized incident the owner of the gulf refused to continue renting it to correct in the open arms. had to find a new vessel to continue its operations.

and i was. afraid. that month ogust twenty seven team it's all n.g.o.s to sign a code of conduct which put strict limits on their ability to carry out rescue missions it had a significant. into fact by the beginning of twenty eighteen only four n.g.o.s were left operating vessels in the mediterranean. italy's determination to limit the activities of n.g.o.s is based on the belief that their presence encourages migrants to make journeys they would otherwise avoid or even in the words of at least controversial new interior minister matej a selfie me that they act as a taxi service matters came to a head in june twenty eighth when it's really refused to let the aquarius

a rescue ship carrying over six hundred migrants disembark them an italian moments when motor also refused to accept them and became a europe wide dispute eventually the migrants were offloaded in spain this left the libyan coast guard as almost the only rescue option in the area which they welcomed nevertheless. will be a few minutes i know you've flown in the equivalent morning. even for a million. costs that are the most would be in the kind of the middle of the. economy. but journalists fabrizio gati says relying only on naval and coast guard vessels will not solve the problem he has followed this issue since investigating an infamous tragedy in twenty thirteen when around two hundred seventy migrants died there lampedusa island on that's occasion and italian navy ship kept out of rescue efforts until it

was too late had that been engine of vessels in the mediterranean at the time the disaster might have been averted the so-called sunni society in europe decide that they had to do something against this massacre and that is the reason why. different organization decide to go at sea to rescue people and to do what's there . to do and what the governments european rich government were not doing any more so the pull factor exist. because the presence of ships of navy ships at sea made more people. feeling safer and more people tried to cross the sea but is the result of the fact that european government refused to go to the route of migration now the journey for those who do make the

trip is becoming even more perilous according to the international organization of migration september twenty eighth had the highest rate of dead or missing at sea since twenty sixteen n.g.o.s say that this is because they are now being discouraged from operating in the area a migrant vessel leaving from libyan shoeless today has little chance of being rescued if it gets into difficulties. from the libyan side the military coastguard say that they are doing their maximum to cooperate with europe and the search and rescue operations but they insist that having n.g.o.s vessels operating off that coast restricts their ability to properly do their jobs including targeting migrant traffickers. colonel masood. is from the coast guard operation center in tripoli where incoming distress calls a handled he told us of his unit's involvement in operation sophia a joint project with the e.u.

to identify and capture vessels being used by migrant smugglers thus disrupting their business model. a miniature via. of the a billion barrels in the media. which is a. bit of the you have a command to fire will be moved and. in the. event. after the twenty eleven revolution in libya ninety percent of its navy was destroyed and twenty thirteen the authorities in tripoli sent the few boats they had left to italy for a pass because of continued instability in libya the vessels went returned until march twenty seventeen the full patrol boats the coast guard and now using for rescue operations. with the

return of its patrol boats the libyan coast guards became more involved in rescue operations but this also brought them into confrontation with the ngos one of the most recent clashes came in march twenty thousand and valving a vessel operated by proactive openoffice a team of journalists from a catamaran you speak to were on board at the time the incident began when the maritime rescue coordination center in rome passed on the location of the sinking vessel to both the libyans and the spanish and geo local command of the operation was given to the coast guards but fast inflatable rubber boats from the open arms got to the scene first they quickly began a rescue mission but then the libyan patrol arrived and maxence got out of the crowd. of people. that read whatever.

record because i don't have i don't i don't have a. problem ok let me go back. from right now he's going to fight. that wants to talk with you. is with us because. i understand that my what my we coming to me. but when the open arms votes began to comply the rest of the migrants in the sinking dinghy started jumping into the water to avoid being rescued by the libyan coast guards who would return them to tripoli. the.

world. eat dog you will eat you go boy he. was you or. you should wish we showed the footage and asked him about the death threats issued by one of the boats under his command. so how can a lot of money machines are going to move them because of so the canonical hundred tonight a good mother. would do that and. have said so what. can the bashed one of them a little and called her there's. something you shouldn't have to say what.

man has to so he can feed what he made him yeah real look let me above them hamper mathematical who are less the sort of who are thought real well cover that was really near. to being one thought a little can all have a little harsh. later kunle bush told us he regretted the threats had been made against the open arms vessel but said that the n.g.o.s do not have access to the intelligence information available to the coast guard he said the sinking dinghy contained people the authorities needed to question. the incident had serious consequences for the ngo the coast guard left the scene and open arms were allowed to take all the migrants on board the authorities in rome then directed the vessel to approach in sicily where the rescued people could be disembarked. but when they arrived the ship was seized and the captain and the head of mission accused of people trafficking risking a fifteen year present. in late september twenty eight hundred we witnessed another

confrontation this time from the libyan perspective we were with the coast guard patrol when a migrant boat in jeopardy was found by queries to cartney one of the few n.g.o.s vessels operating in the central mediterranean. and. the commander of the coast guard patrol also the n.g.o.s all to withdraw to five nautical miles from the target when the enjoy a vessel did not follow the orders the country reacted. quite worried if it. had said it would. visit thirty. five of the. forty i say ok if it gets to that it would be like a pit bull shit out. of it that it

. could get through to. us that they did what we believe it. so i hear he will visit. if you're sure if you think that you're getting. the money been headed. from the field of vision to the bottom of what. the man had the. look on beneath not the idle. but obvious. problem of the i don't know focus. shift how cops a somewhat beaten track to be doing with the need when i can count those on with me in the. least that's not enough.

like this. but nothing from the money side of the city i'm better off of so what they are doing. while the people if he didn't do what the what. you know of a number. of boys it. looks. as if you know it all but one thing to say here or there some of them are going to have the same time so i did. get that she had flashed at the local today we have. just about flipped out when it came out that.

if you. think. that you. don't think that it was i think of something. i don't think that you know they have the level of their body you have what they did with that time with us here. but i will tell you is that i think. my story to something that quietus them and then he had. to have them. much in with a couple more given how to sew a head. but that he had saved them from so much in the what about you know sort of . acquire the selected such as japanese to have you know

a little color. on the cloth of the head and was that he sure has them because he. can be and can i use the benefit of how. you know if them and call them up and how to so i had an even with those two or three months or whatever and. i love a surfeit. out of i'm in second that quietus just sat down yourself laughing while that the sun will wash out of our home town who would soon be a part of i want to live at the atom houses so often. you shake not the old one that is a quiet a still be enough of a move to the. libyan coast guards all see clary's two to leave the area but then another rubber boat with a round hundred migrants some buddha was spotted by an italian military plane it

was sinking the plane dropped inflatable life rafts to keep the boat afloat and passed the nucleation to both the libyans and decrease to. this time the coast guards called that fast the migrants would. taken back to libya. and you say that returning migrants to libya exposes them to huge risks of rape torture and slavery are anonymous people trust a great. but it's not possible for me to walk for. a while for some. money and the reason. i'm anybody come to him is for for me. what was going to bring us. i don't know freedom of grooming a good many things. because i need my money. i need my conflict.

but i do use. to be doing my duty and steve. you may get brazing you want to call choke. on things like do. what you want to offer to a small group for a long piece together for a bunch of. young americans deduct forced against lived our forefathers and today want to go to your denials are you choose not to be dong the coastguards told us that they had been surprised to find many libyans aboard the boat they rescued in late september but perhaps they should not have been an outbreak of fighting that month between rival militias in tripoli and the country was becoming ever more dangerous with it also becoming more difficult to make the crossing to europe people were trying to get out while they still had a chance. of those the coast guards took back to libya some would soon be doing whatever they could to raise money for another attempt. on of what he

or she didn't know. or do foster is being killed is frustration. only want to watch . sports. is the fastest means to make money to do course you want to. see shouldn't. you be almost destroyed so do the usual. you tours of talk you don't want to shock people decide that you know. how many are. money your blood stream of photos from those who use. those beautiful this is a false teacher of. european governments and the libyan authorities that concentrate first and foremost on the terrorists and limiting migrant numbers may have different priorities from n.g.o.s that have purely humanitarian aid but all

say they want to save lives and so it is difficult to fully understand why they cannot work more. to be together. for as long as there is war in poverty and africa and the middle east free from migrants will try to reach europe from across the mediterranean. if something goes wrong and their lives are at risk and dangerous seas and surely someone should always be there to help them. but right now all the participants in this complex narrative seem to be diverging rather than coming together. well we thought i mean you've got to focus on pushing on the horn when i am in libya woman so often the folk. she thought was a huge shock to me that i can assure that i'm going to the militia with it now by stopping people and i mean you don't want to double up show them and get on with me without you you know if you're going to go nuclear you would you would only.
