Doctors Without Borders rescued 68 migrants off the Libyan coast, including 5 children and a pregnant woman, who were on board 3 unseaworthy boats.

The organization said in a statement that 5 migrants refused to be disembarked and remained on board the fiberglass boats, noting that this situation is worrying.

It added that the lack of safe and legal options, in addition to “the violence” that migrants suffer in Libya, leaves them with no choice but to cross the sea and increase the number of victims.
