They are forced out of their countries. I get your opinion if it is about young people just looking for work. This is also happening. But there are mothers and babies and kids among those people. They don’t go onto a rubber boat for fun.
I bet you wouldn’t care about laws if the live of your family is in danger.
And even if it is illegal, can you explain how it is ok to push them back into the water and let them drown? Mothers and their kids?
Usually, because they know a second language, but the first safe country they pass through doesn’t use that language, or because they’ve got a relative living legally in a different country that they think can help them.
That doesn’t change the fact that international law tells them to seek the first safe country. If you go further you are an illegal immigrant, and over the last 8 or so years I lost absolutely all of my empathy towards those people.

What prevents them from seeking safety in the first safe country? Egypt etc, there are no civil wars there

Then get a visa and go the legal way.
