Summary of the Case:
In the morning hours of 28th of November 2022 our team was alerted by relatives stating that a group of 37 people had been pushed back to Turkish waters south east of Lesvos. They provided a location. At 9:55 CET we alerted the Turkish coastguard. At 10:15 CET the Turkish coastguard called back to confirm they had found the 37 people at the location provided by us. They stated that the people had been obviously pushed back to this position.
Unfortunately we could not establish a direct contact to the people so we could not get more details about what had happened.
