Far-right group sends ship to confront boats rescuing refugees in Mediterranean ‘and take them back to Africa’
Anti-Islam group says it plans to ‘guard the borders of Europe’
>Agitation: Defend Europe plans sink empty migrant boats and disrupt NGO operations at sea Getty
A far-right organisation has launched a boat in the Mediterranean to confront ships rescuing refugees and send them “back to Africa”.
>Defend Europe, a group linked to the European anti-Islam and anti-immigrant “identitarian” movement, is currently sailing a 25-crew 422 tonne vessel to the Libyan coast in a bid to block search-and-rescue vessels operated by humanitarian organisations.
>More than 85,000 refugees and migrants, most of them sub-Saharan Africans, have been rescued and brought to Italy this year, with fears the total could reach 200,000 by December. More than 2,000 have died in crossings.
>NGOs and advocacy groups have expressed alarm at Defend Europe’s mission, telling The Independent that if it carries out its aims it will “get in the way of genuine lifesaving efforts” and risk further loss of life.
>In May Defend Europe carried out a failed attempt to block an Médecins Sans Frontières ship with a small dinghy, and off the back of the stunt has crowdfunded more than €100,000 and bought the larger boat, the C-Star, to pursue its more ambitious plans in the Med.
>The group said in a statement that for the new, larger-scale mission it would “overwatch the doings of the NGOs and disrupt the human trafficking rings by sinking the abandoned boats they leave behind”.
>It added that the group would offer the Libyan Coastguard support by “saving anyone [it] can” if the boat receives an SOS signal, but that anyone it saved would be taken “back to Africa”, as part of its bid to “guard the borders of Europe”.

China, who will then appropriately say "no" and gun them down

Ideally they'd have weapons for shooting Africans regardless. Mount some broadsides on their boat, heave ho.

Reminder that some refugees even come from fucking Bangladesh of all places

And this is portrayed to us as if it were completely wrong and racist.

Cant they follow thru and sink the boats too there's no laws on international waters
Doing God's work. It's nice to see some proud white people being proactive and not being complacent
