The NGOs in this case work with the people smugglers.
The “migrant rescue efforts” cause more people to take the risk. This results in more deaths and illegal crossings from people listening to people smugglers.
Why do you believe this? It’s never been evidenced. Read the section “CRIMINALIZATION OF SEA RESCUE NGOS: A SMEAR CAMPAIGN” in this.

People who claim that don’t mean literally work with smugglers. They mean, that efforts to save refugees encourages fleeing.
That’s about as logical as claiming ambulances are working with drug dealers when they try to save someone ODing.
It is illogical, not to mention callous. And yet the exaggerated rhetoric persists and whips up negative sentiment towards literal life savers from braindead segments of the far right.
They’re wrong about encouraging fleeing too (as if that even needed saying) as I’ve pointed out elsewhere on the thread.
