Libya detains 54 migrants including Nigerian women fleeing to Europe

The Libyan Department for Combating Illegal Migration (DCIM) has arrested 54 individuals from various nationalities, including Nigerian, Chadian, Ethiopian, and Somalian citizens

The Migrant Rescue Watch disclosed the development, noting that the detainees would be transferred to the Brak Al-Shati Immigration Detention Center as part of preparations for their eventual repatriation.

The detained individuals include women and men seeking to cross into Europe through the perilous Mediterranean route.

According to Migrant Rescue Watch, “DCIM transferred 54 #migrants incl. women of Chadian, Ethiopian, Nigerian and Somali nationalities from Al-Jufra IDC to Brak Al-Shati Immigration Detention Center in preparation of repatriation.”
