Henrique from the Portuguese Police is one of Frontex officers helping the Greek coast guard patrol its borders on Lesvos.
“I command a patrol boat off the coast of Lesbos. We work with Frontex headquarters and the Greek coast guard to monitor suspicious activities and assist sea rescue operations. One time locals reported hearing screams somewhere off the coast. When we got there, we found a small rubber boat sinking and overloaded with about 70 people on board. We rescued them and made sure they were taken safely to shore.”
