People celebrated aboard the Open Arms’ charity rescue ship, Tuesday, August 20, after an Italian prosecutor ordered the seizure of the ship. The vessel has been stranded at sea near Lampedusa island for the past 19 days. Nearly 100 migrants on the ship are expected to be removed from the boat tonight. The charity group has repeatedly asked to bring the migrants ashore but was rebuffed due to an Italian ban on private rescue ships.
