Hundreds of migrants were captured from a Turkish-flagged cargo ship in the Dardanelles Strait on March 12 after coast guards opened fire to stop the vessel.
The 59-meter-long cargo ship, the Doğan Kartal, ignored security forces’ calls to stop off the Gallipoli peninsula. After halting sea traffic in the strait, the Coast Guard fired on the engine room of the ship that was fleeing.
The migrants reportedly resisted and threatened the captain to prevent him from surrendering. The ship was halted after its rudder became locked due to a technical problem.
A total of 337 migrants, including 85 children and 68 women, have been transferred to Gelibolu, while the ship was docked at the Gelibolu port by the Coast Guard. The migrants were set to be questioned after undergoing a health check.
Two crew members and a foreigner who organized the journey for the migrants have been detained.

Turkey opened fire on a migrant ship carrying over 300 men, women and children fleeing Syria, coast guard officials have confirmed.
Officials detained 337 Syrian refugees who were discovered on a 59 metre-long cargo ship off Turkey’s western coast. Eighty-five of the refugees on board were children.
Governor Ahmet Cinar of Canakkale province said the Coast Guard fired on the freighter’s engine room off the Gallipoli peninsula late Thursday, after it ignored warnings to stop.
Desperate migrants on board shouted “either to Italy or death” before the ship was halted, according to the Dogan news agency.
On est bien d’accord (oui ?) : la Turquie laisse passer les Européens qui vont semer le chaos en Syrie, et intercepte les Syriens qui tentent de se réfugier en Europe – on ne peut pas être efficace partout. L’Europe remercie donc la Turquie pour son excellent travail :
Italian Interior Minister Angelino Alfano thanked Turkey for its efforts to prevent “ghost ships” from illegally carrying migrants to Italy.
