Some of the 32 migrants who have
been stranded in the Mediterranean on board NGO ship Sea Watch
for 17 days have now started refusing food, the German NGO said
in a tweet Monday.
Sea Watch reiterated the fear that "their psychological and
health state may markedly worsen".
It said "on board the Sea watch we are registering episodes
of people refusing food.
"We can't believe that all this is happening a few miles from
European coasts".
Sea Watch and Sea Eye- another NGO ship with 17 migrants
aboard - have been off Malta for days as Italy and other
countries have refused to open their ports to the migrants.
