Vincent actually helps Libyan militias intercept refugee boats and pull them back to Libya, where the “rescued” refugees are subjected to rape, torture, slavery, and murder upon disembarkation. FM v Frontex is still pending before the @eucourtofjustice.bsky.social @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social

“Dear friends and comrades, Our dear friend Cédric passed away on the weekend. Many of us organised politically together with him, especially on the struggles at the DoKi Camp. More importantly, he became a close friend to many of us….

It’s heartbreaking to witness the thousands of Sudanese dying in the desert on their way to safety. The world must establish safe pathways for those fleeing bloody wars and violence and open borders for everyone to travel freely.

Solidarity with @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social and all survivors of Libyan detention & violence. The transfer of El Hishri to the ICC is a crucial step toward justice. People on the move deserve truth, accountability, and safety. No more impunity.

Solidarität mit @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social und allen Überlebenden libyscher Haft und Gewalt. Die Überstellung von El Hishri an den IStGH ist ein entscheidender Schritt in Richtung Gerechtigkeit. Menschen auf der Flucht verdienen Verantwortlichkeit und Sicherheit. Keine Straffreiheit mehr.

Nigerian activist Okey Vitalis Nnorom (Michael) is one of the 17 abducted activists by Israeli occupation forces on board Libya’s Omar Al-Mukhtar Flotilla. Let’s give enough spotlight for the vulnerable persons among the abducted. #freethemall🇵🇸

In Niger, people on the move are protesting peacefully for 365+ days for the protection of their rights. Many were pushed back illegally and are now stuck in inhumane and EU-funded camps. @unhcr.org –an EU-externalization ally– does not help. Read more: @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social's Book of Shame!

Im Niger protestieren Menschen auf der Flucht seit 365+ Tagen friedlich für den Schutz ihrer Rechte. Illegal zurückgedrängt, sitzen viele nun fest in EU-finanzierten Lagern. @unhcr.org, ein EU-Externalisierungs-Partner, versagt. Mehr im Book of Shame von @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social!

David Yambio, President of Refugees in Libya and victim of EU-funded abuses: "We, Refugees in Libya and I, personally, have been abducted with the boats you financed. We have been held in arbitrary detention in the prisons you have supported. We have been tortured by the militias you have trained.”

🆘 Distress Call from Benghazi ⚠️ Two days ago, we received an SOS message from a group of women and children allegedly held in an EU-linked detention camp in Benghazi, Libya. Most of them are Eritrean. They reported daily rape and sexual violence, starvation, torture, and ransom demands. 1/2

❗entführen ❗versklaven ❗foltern ❗töten Die UN spricht von systematischen Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit – Europa sieht zu. Deshalb ruft @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social zu einem breiten Protest auf – mit einer Großkundgebung am 18.10. in Rom. www.refugeesinlibya.org/post/18th-of... 2/3

We are waiting for you in Rome with ANOTHER BOOK 📕 on why the MoU between Italy and Libya is deadly. It will be in Italian with English version later on. Come with your rage, loved ones, colleagues and friends.

Stop the bloody deal! We say no to the Memorandum of Understanding between Italy and Libya.

🚨 18 October – Manifestation in Rome 🚨 We refuse to stay silent while Italy renews its bloody deal with Libyan militias. We call on all comrades, refugees, allies & citizens of conscience: join us in Rome to say NO to the Italy–Libya Memorandum! ✊🏾 📍 Piazza dei Santi Apostoli – Rome 📅 18 October

We drew upon interviews with refugees, participant observation at protests and online, and a workshop with legal practitioners. Huge thanks to all of our collaborators, we learned so much from them and without whom it wouldn't exist. The name comes from @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social's UNFAIR campaign

My colleagues Rachel Ibreck, Souhayel Weslety and I wrote a field reflection titled ‘The “UNFAIR” refugee agency: UNHCR accountability after protests and violence’ based on fieldwork researching refugee-led protests at UNHCR offices in Cairo, Tripoli and Tunisa. academic.oup.com/jrs/advance-...

Small overview of the demonstration we had in Geneva. Individual videos and speeches coming soon. @unhcr.org @davidyambio.bsky.social

Great piece by Peter Rees, Rachel Ibreck and Souhayel Weslety on UNHCR and our UNFAIR campaign. @unhcr.org @iom.int @davidyambio.bsky.social @infomigrants.net Give it a read⤵️ academic.oup.com/jrs/advance-...

With the utmost respect for people who work for UNHCR and deeply care about migrants (there’s a lot of them!), I think when the people you’re supposed to help get to this point, the institution should truly do some tough self-reflection (and possibly also soul searching).

We did what refugees are never supposed to do: we wrote a book that names and criticises the humanitarian agency that is meant to be our “saviours” For years, they wrote about us. Reports, statistics, projects. Now we have written about them—about UNHCR, IOM, and the EU….. 1/2

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A VEHICLE 🚐 Dear supporters and friends, do you have a car or a used van you no longer use? It could be very helpful for us…… see +ALT on the image

New & important effort from @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social: "Since 2021 we, refugees, have been protesting against UNHCR in Tripoli, Tunis & Agadez, calling the agency to recognize our humanity, to listen to our voices & to provide us real protection." www.refugeesinlibya.org/post/manifes...

🚨 BREAKING NEWS — Shipwreck off Sfax, Tunisia 🚨 A boat carrying 47 people, including babies and children, has just shipwrecked near Louza after leaving yesterday. They are caught between life and death. We have already contacted the Tunisian National Guard demanding immediate intervention. 1/2

We join this to call for their immediate and unconditional release ‼️

“Dying at sea is more merciful than dying in one of the militia detention centres, or being traded as if we weren’t human,” says Omer, the applicant in FM v Frontex, in a rare interview @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social @en.sea-watch.org @eucourtofjustice.bsky.social www.eldiario.es/desalambre/s...

There are not enough words to express our pain, nor enough time in the world to commemorate our murdered comrades. Two years ago, Fati Dosso and her daughter Marie were expelled from Tunisia, forced into the desert between borders, and left to die in silence.
