Page Title:
Asylum seekers towed back in lifeboat: New video emerges as Defence Minister criticises ABC - ABC News

Page Description:
The first video of what appears to be a lifeboat full of asylum seekers being towed by an Australian vessel under Operation Sovereign Borders has been obtained by the ABC. The video, received from Indonesian sources, appears to have been filmed from inside an orange lifeboat which is being towed by the Australian Customs patrol boat Triton on the high seas. At least one young child can be seen on board the lifeboat and another large vessel can be seen nearby. A rigid hulled inflatable boat can also be seen alongside. On Thursday the ABC broadcast vision of what is believed to be the same orange lifeboat after it arrived on the southern coast of Java on Wednesday night.
