The humanitarian organization Sea Watch said that it documented a violation of international law committed by the Libyan coast guards, when they boarded a tug boat and excluded three migrants who had taken refuge on the boat. A videotape broadcast by the German organization showed a member of the "Sea-Watch" organization on board the organization's light aircraft called "Moon Bird" urging the tug crew to rescue a person swimming towards the ship, asking the crew not to hand him over to the Libyan coast guards. A Sea Watch spokesman said that his organization saw coast guard officials on board the ship and that he believes the migrants were removed from it, considering that this action constitutes a violation of international law. The western coast of Libya is considered the main starting point for African migrants who hope to reach Europe, by paying money to smugglers who traffic in humans. The number of these migrants has decreased thanks to Italian efforts to dismantle smuggling networks and support Libyan coast guards. Although the current battles in Libya have made the situation more complicated for those who traffic in human beings, international relief officials have warned that the situation may push more Libyans to flee their country. According to the United Nations International Organization for Migration, about 2,300 migrants lost their lives in the Mediterranean last year, out of about 117,000 who arrived in Europe by sea.
