The German humanitarian group Sea-Watch says its ship carrying 47 migrants has entered Italian waters despite an explicit ban by Interior Minister Matteo Salvini.
Sea-Watch said Saturday it flouted the ban for humanitarian reasons, moving toward the southern Italian island of Lampedusa.
"After this unacceptable, discriminating separation, the medical and psychological situation onboard the ship became unbearable, and the crew could no longer ensure the safety of the rescued people," Sea-Watch said. Speaking later in Milan at a rally of right-wing populist movements, Salvini declared:"Never, as long as I am interior minister, will that ship enter an Italian port."
