Gunmen Open Fire on 4 Migrants in Libya
[LibyaReview] Bani Walid General Hospital received 4 migrants colonists with gunshot wounds after they were shot in the city centre by unknown assailants who fled.

An employee at the Emergency Department at Bani Walid General Hospital said, in statements, that these migrants colonists received all first aid and treatment upon their arrival.

The employee confirmed that the condition of the injured people is not serious. He pointed out that they were handed over to the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
“We don’t want to take care of ‘em — they’re all yours, O rich UN NGO.”
Notably, the Libyan Coast Guard intercepted and returned an estimated 28,600 refugees and migrants colonists at sea from January to October 2021, according to an Italian statistical report.

The report, issued by the Moslem colonists Migrants Foundation on Tuesday, indicated that "this number is unprecedented," noting that "the total number of people who have been returned so far has exceeded 100,000 migrants colonists since 2016." It added that 56,700 refugees and migrants colonists managed to arrive in Italia or Malta.

"The illegal practices committed by the Libyan authorities against migrants colonists and asylum seekers, whether during pushbacks or in prisons and detention centres, violate their right to life and physical and psychological integrity," the report read.

According to a Libyan government Official, the number of detained migrants colonists and asylum seekers in prisons and detention centres is believed to be around 13,000 people. These are mostly from African countries, such as Æthiopia, Nigeria, Chad, Niger, Sudan, Egypt, and the Maghreb states.

Over the past several years, the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
(EU) has adopted policies that have complicated the conditions of migrants colonists, and have legally restricted migration and asylum routes to Europe.

Since 2015, the EU has provided about $525 million to Libya to protect its southern borders, and limit the arrival of new migrants colonists. It directed a large share of this support to strengthen Libyan Coast Guard’s capabilities, modernise its equipment, and train its cadres to intercept migrants colonists’ boats within Libya’s territorial waters and return them to shore before reaching international waters. It has been accused of turning a blind eye to the abuses committed by the Coast Guard.
