Halfway into Mission, Triglav Intercepts No Migrants Yet

Augusta, 13 January - Halfway through its two-month mission to help migrants off the coast of Sicily, the Slovenian military patrol boat Triglav has so far only controlled cargo ships as part of efforts to fight smuggling, but has not yet encountered migrant vessels. The boat patrols the sea east of Sicily and will remain in the area until the end of January.
