Not informed on this particular instance but 90% of illegal immigration to western countries happens because the US, UK, France, or etc, fucked up the migrants’ origin country one way or another. A perfect example of this is the US: most immigrants are from places fucked up by either the US overthrowing any left-wing Latin American government, or by awful US drug policy. Most nations not only have a moral responsibility to migrants as fellow humans, but they are usually directly responsible for those migrants wanting to leave their homelands to begin with.
They are forced out of their countries. I get your opinion if it is about young people just looking for work. This is also happening. But there are mothers and babies and kids among those people. They don’t go onto a rubber boat for fun.
I bet you wouldn’t care about laws if the live of your family is in danger.
And even if it is illegal, can you explain how it is ok to push them back into the water and let them drown? Mothers and their kids?
Usually, because they know a second language, but the first safe country they pass through doesn’t use that language, or because they’ve got a relative living legally in a different country that they think can help them.
They are illegaly coming too. Also media is silent about this? It is the only thing they talk about.

What prevents them from seeking safety in the first safe country? Egypt etc, there are no civil wars there
