⛔️ Conflict ⛔️ Human rights violations ⛔️ Rescued refugees arbitrarily detained ⛔️ Civilian homes+hospitals shelled ⛔️ Traffickers exploit people w/ impunity ?? Libya CANNOT be considered safe. No rescued refugee/migrant should be returned there ?? https://t.co/CjFxNxh0vc

Time has come. Europe needs to urgently revive an agreement on relocating rescued refugees and migrants after they've been rescued on the Mediterranean sea It's in everyone's interest to avoid another summer of perpetual negotiations on ad-hoc agreements https://t.co/CjFxNxh0vc

UNHCR (@refugees) and @UNmigration are deeply concerned at reports that States are delaying responses to or ignoring distress calls. States MUST save lives at sea under int'l law. These obligations cannot be traded away for fuel and aid https://t.co/CjFxNxh0vc

There. is. no. pull. factor. If on one side you face falling rockets and on the other side the threat of kidnap, torture and other human rights abuses, the sea starts to look safer than the land. https://t.co/HSedQnu7ge
