NEARLY 1,000 refugees have been pushed back to war-torn Libya in the first two weeks of the year, the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) said yesterday.
At least 953, including 85 children, were returned to Libya and sent to detention centres, according to the IOM, which provides aid to migrants in the North African country.
“[We have] consistently called for the dismantling of the detention system and the orderly release of migrants,” the organisation said.
