Tunisia rescues 64 illegal Muslim migrants from capsizing boat off eastern Mediterranean coast
The boat was filled with illegals, heading to Italy, with many likely to go from there to other, more welfare-friendly destinations in the EU. Leftists routinely bemoan the safety of illegals, which is indeed a concern, but they ignore the illegal activity itself.
In 2024, 30,000 illegals arrived in Italy: 61% from Libya and 32% from Tunisia. Libya has a 97% Sunni population, while Tunisia is 98% Sunni. This is what the term “Muslim invasion” of the West refers to. It has been steady and persistent for over a decade, across the EU and the UK. Given Western birthrates, and its leftist leaders, the writing is on the wall for Europe.
Tunisia rescues 64 migrants from capsizing boat off eastern Mediterranean coast
by3+ Massinissa Benlakehal, Associated Press, March 2, 2025:
TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — Authorities in Tunisia say 64 migrants were rescued from a boat that capsized off the country’s eastern Mediterranean coast after running out of fuel.
The country’s national customs agency said in a statement that maritime patrols sent to the capsized vessel rescued 64 people of various nationalities off the coast of Mahdia on Friday evening. No deaths were reported.
“The rescued migrants were trying to illegally cross by boat towards the European space,” the customs agency said.
Initial findings of the investigation suggest that the migrants had set off from an unnamed neighbouring country, likely to be Libya.
The migrants were taken to the port of Chebba, 37 miles (60 kilometers) north of Sfax, for further investigation.
More than 30,000 migrants set sail from Libya and arrived in Italy in 2024, according to UNHCR. The UN refugee agency said 61% of those arriving in Italy by sea came from Libya, followed by 32% from Tunisia….
Family with kids aged 1 and 2 found frozen trying to cross Canada-U.S. border
A family with two young children who collapsed with hypothermia were rescued in the forest overnight Thursday after trying to cross the border into Quebec between the U.S. and Canada.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said they received a call at 3:15 a.m. from Quebec provincial police alerting them that two adults and a one and two-year-old located around Havelock, Que., needed urgent rescue from the woods after walking for hours overnight and getting lost.
The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) had received a 911 call shortly before from the mother.
RCMP spokesperson Martina Pillarova told Global News that emergency services were able to locate the family by keeping them on the 911 call and tracking their coordinates via GPS.
“They stayed on the line while we tracked them. They were in an area with lots of trees, so no vehicle or skidoo could pass through. Officers got to them by 4:15 a.m. by foot by following their footsteps in the snow,” said Pillarova.
Authorities say the family was found under a tree. The parents had lost their shoes in a river, and the infant and toddler were not properly dressed for cold, harsh Canadian winter weather.
The two adults, whose ages the RCMP could not confirm, had collapsed and were holding the two children. They were unable to move and had hypothermia, the RCMP said.
The mother was transported out of the woods by sleigh, both children were carried by officers and the father managed to get on to a side-by-side vehicle that was able to get to them.
Emergency services from nearby towns Hemmingford, Que., and Mooers in upstate New York were waiting for them a kilometre away.
They were transported to hospital in Châteauguay, Que., to be treated for hypothermia and are expected to recover.
Pillarova said the family will likely ask for refugee status and their case will be transferred to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). She could not provide any further detail on their origins.
