23 immigrants, including a pregnant woman brought to Malta after AFM interception.

This morning a group of 23 immigrants were rescued by the Armed Forces of Malta after their dinghy was intercepted 58 nautical miles South of Malta.

The group consists of 20 men and three women, one of them pregnant.

The dinghy developed engine problems and the AFM took the migrants on board a patrol boat because of deteriorating conditions on board.

Total number of illegal immigrants under Labour Government so far: 82 (landed on March 29) + 84 (19 April) + 83 (11 May) + 18 (15 June) + 23 (16 June) = 290. Soon Dr Muscat like Dr Gonzi will be preaching about Christian values.
