REFUGEE rights and rescue organisations have reacted with horror to reports that 30 people were shot dead in one of Libya’s unofficial migrant detention centres this week.
The UN-backed Libyan Government of National Accord (GNA) announced the killings yesterday afternoon, the day after they took place.
The attack was carried out in a smuggling warehouse near Gharyan, a city south-west of Tripoli, the GNA said and was carried out in revenge over the death of a smuggler killed by migrants.
