Nearly 500 people were rescued from small craft in the Mediterranean Sea on July 23, the migrant rescue organization Sea-Watch said.

Sea-Watch said their team rescued 428 people, including two pregnant women and multiple young children, from four small boats on Saturday.

On July 24, the organization tweeted that Sea-Watch 3 was “heading north” and “hoping to get a port of safety assigned soon.”
