The baby was born on board an Italian navy ship, the Bettica, after her mother was rescued from a boat floating off the coast of Libya yesterday. The mother was already in labour before being rescued. She was among 6,500
migrants rescued in Mediterranean in the last 72 hours. They were all rescued from boats sent from the coast of Libya by smuggling gangs.
The smugglers, who are making tens of millions of pounds from trafficking desperate people fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East and Africa, had packed them into the boats so tightly that they were unable to move their legs and many were suffering from cramp….. d first words dt came out of d baby’s mouth baby were “abeg where is my Italo passport? I’m an Italian by birth o ehn ehn”……
