"The European Union's border security agency Frontex has collected enough boats and aircraft to run operations in the Mediterranean, where the influx of African migrants arriving by sea is expected to increase as the summer nears. The Warsaw-based agency now has 19 aircraft, 24 helicopters, 107 vessels and other technical equipment collected from the 27 EU member states."
