LAMPEDUSA/MADRID - More than 10 of the migrants on a rescue ship stranded off southern Italy jumped overboard and tried to swim ashore on Tuesday as the Spanish charity operating the vessel remained in a stand-off with the Italian government over the migrants’ fate.

“Nine people have thrown themselves into the water ... The situation is out of control,” the Open Arms tweeted, after earlier posting a video of other migrant who had jumped in the water, his way blocked by an Italian Coast Guard boat. Reuters footage showed a few people being brought to the Open Arms on a small dinghy but it was not clear if they were among the rescued migrants.

Salvini suggested on Tuesday that the charity was exaggerating the problems on board. Of eight migrants taken ashore on Monday night for urgent medical attention, he said, only two had health problems. But Toninelli has set a condition - that Madrid de-register the Open Arms ship by removing its Spanish flag. Without a flag, it would be difficult for the ship to continue running rescue missions, its insurance would be invalid and it could be intercepted at any time by a navy or coast guard force.

If a solution is not found, Open Arms has not ruled out the option of defying Italy’s ban and attempting to dock.Asked if the ship would try and enter the port without permission, the Open Arms head of mission in Lampedusa, Riccardo Gatti, said on Monday, “Yes, it is an option”.

This is a criminal act to support these illegals, inside territorial waters!

the are not refugees. They are economic migrants.

This is what happens when you don't let their ship dock. Let's get them on dry land and keep them in one place while the details are sorted out.

Taxi to the mainland..
