Incredibly sad and a disgrace for Europe:
According to #unicef , at least 289 children are estimated to have died or disappeared this year attempting to cross the #centralMediterranean from North Africa to #europe , twice as much as in the same period last year.

Once again, this decision targets search and rescue NGOs but the real price will be paid by people fleeing across the #CentralMediterranean and finding themselves in situations of distress.
📢 We will not remain silence and inactive!

The only factor preventing people from crossing the sea is bad weather, not New Year celebrations. Onboard the #GeoBarents, the MSF team is making its way to the search and rescue region to prevent more deaths in the #CentralMediterranean!

1/3 The #LouiseMichel is back in Spain and will undergo some Maintenance work in the shipyard to return to the #centralMediterranean in 2023 with new power. Our forth rescue rotation this year has shown once again how brutally Europe's border regime treats people on the move. https://t.co/y77jll82ae

The #EuropeanCommission
action plan on the #CentralMediterranean recycles the same repressive & ineffective focus on stopping people from entering #Europe by increasing funding, support to often abusive govts in North Africa (e.g Libya)
The plan ignores the need for:
🛥️ state-led, proactive search & rescue operations
⚓️a clear mechanism for disembarkation
🇪🇺a process for relocation of people to other EU countries
