Poor health conditions of its passengers

She had two weeks to go back to Libya or to go to Tunisia, any word on that?-- AntonHogervorst (talk) 20:34, 29 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What I mean is: if it was solely for the health condition, she could have gone to another port. That she has to specifically go to Italy is her opinion not a fact.--AntonHogervorst (talk) 06:24, 30 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I added a reference to the map they posted on Twitter. Lampedusa is 116 nautical miles from the point of rescue, nearer than Malta (160nm).ale (talk) 09:14, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Tunisia was still closer than both Malta and Lampedusa and it is a safe nation per the UN. 2600:1700:1EC1:30C0:68CB:1C2E:7E93:C608 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:36, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why she was arrested & potential charges

The article doesn't mention what she did or what charges she may be facing. She rammed a police border patrol boat when she forced her way into harbour. She could face up to 10 years in prison if she is convicted of "resisting a warship". Unfortunately I can't edit it in myself: article has been locked because y'all can't behave. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.219.157.177 (talk) 13:04, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Resisting a warship is different issue from the ramming. That applies to Navigation code and Rackete refusal to follow orders of Italian warship about not entering Italian territorial waters. Ramming a warship is second thing she is being investigated for by regional prosecutor. EllsworthSK (talk) 08:45, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Map Sea-Watch 3

The german magazine bild.de published the route-map of sea-watch 3 link greets 79.219.43.32 (talk) 16:07, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

the article shall be updated

in the article there is no mention that she is still under investigation by italian courts, for support to illegal immigration and refuse to obey to a warship. --PilotaDD (talk) 07:38, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

PilotaDD, can you give us a link to a source for that information? --valereee (talk) 10:44, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

She is under investigation by Italian prosecutory and Italian police. Italian courts do not perform any investigative duties. However, as registered user you are allowed to edit the article and add it, or bring source here on talk-page and we can talk about form of addition.

License

Her nautical license is for pleasure boats only. She is no professional naval captain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:C0:DF09:ED00:1C95:1FA9:B444:9B14 (talk) 01:22, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not Employed by Sea Watch

Carola Rackete issued a statement today confirming she is not employed by Sea Watch and never has been. She has only ever worked with Sea Watch as a volunteer. I suspect that this is the fault of news media being lazy and conflating volunteer work with employment. I've updated the page to reflect that she was a volunteer. Would be good to get a secondary source but for now going with a Twitter thread.^[1] Boredintheevening (talk) 09:38, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
