Random information on the term “MOAS”:
The Migrant Offshore Aid Station (MOAS) is a global NGO specialized in search and rescue. MOAS rescued almost 14,000 persons from the Mediterranean Sea between August 2014 and October 2015, using a 40-metre (136-ft) expedition vessel, the Phoenix. MOAS received a “tidal wave of support” in donations following the death of Alan Kurdi. This allowed MOAS to expand its mission to the Aegean Sea and South East Asia.
On January 12, 2016, MOAS assisted a boatload of Syrian refugees who had washed ashore on the island of Agathonisi. The group included a two-year-old boy who became the first known migrant casualty that year. During operations, MOAS assists rescue coordination centres (RCC) to mitigate loss of life at sea by providing food, water, life jackets and emergency medical care to migrant vessels in distress. When migrants are taken on board, under the coordination of the RCCs, MOAS then follows orders when it comes to disembarkation.
The operation is coordinated from the island of Malta, which lies in the central Mediterranean Sea and is close to the Italian islands of Sicily and Lampedusa. Italy and Malta are at the center of a migratory route connecting North Africa to Europe. Over the past years, both countries have coordinated and been directly involved in hundreds of cases saving thousands of lives at sea. MOAS is a professional operation designed for search and rescue. It is equipped with an 18-strong crew including seafarers, rescuers, paramedics and doctors. The Phoenix has its own clinic, rescue RHIBs and drones to assist in search and rescue.
