Norwegian Search and Rescue vessel «Peter Henry von Koss», saved 43 migrants lives

”Yesterday, the Norwegian Search and Rescue vessel «Peter Henry von Koss», saved 43 migrants lives. The crew did not consider the migrants’ rubber dingy safe enough, they were afraid that it would overturn in low water.

Thus they started pickup from the dingy. 18 men, 11 women and 14 children who all said they came from Syria were handed over to the Hellenic Coastguard.

Thank you for your effort Kripos and Redningsselskapet.”, mentioned the Norwegian Embassy in Athens.
