The crew of a Turkish ro-ro vessel sailing in the Mediterranean hid in their cabins and called for outside help when onboard cameras caught potentially dangerous stowaways wandering below deck.
Help arrived a short while later in the form of the Italian special forces, who approached the 34,200-gt Galata Seaways (built 2010) by helicopter. They then boarded the ship and arrested about 15 illegal migrants after a lengthy search.
