Answer

What kind of protection do civilian volunteers need at sea?

Civilian volunteers need more than political statements or a naval presence near the route. They need clear rules for intervention, reliable communication with relatives, medical evacuation plans, insurance coverage and follow-up support after the mission. Without those safeguards, people at sea and their families can be left exposed when something goes wrong.
