ILO and IMO call for urgent action to protect the thousand seafarers of one hundred ships stranded in Ukraine
Letter to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the International Committee of the Red Cross and Médecins Sans Frontières
April 8, 2022
In the letter they highlight that, "in addition to the dangers caused from the bombings, many of the ships affected are now devoid of food, fuel, fresh water and other vital supplies. As a result - Ryder and Lim pointed out - the situation of the seafarers, who come from many countries, is becoming more and more unsustainable, posing serious risks to their health and their well-being'. With the letter the representatives of ILO and IMO ask the three organizations to "take measures urgent' to support the supply of these ships with vital supplies for the seafarers on board.
