Jordanian Prince: Migrants and Zeid Al-Hussein

jordanian prince: He appealed Tuesday to the international community to face up to the unimaginable horrors the detained migrants are facing, according to CBC. UN rights monitors this month visited four facilities in Tripoli operated by Libya's Department of Combating Illegal Migration. Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein decried unimaginable horrors faced by 19,900 migrants now detained in the North African country, more than 2 times the number in mid-September. Zeid, a Jordanian prince, said the monitors were shocked at the sight of thousands of emaciated and traumatized men, women and children piled on top of each other, locked up in hangars with no access to the most basic necessities. Migrants gather at a detention centre in Gharyan, Libya on Oct. 12. While UN agencies and other humanitarian groups have access to them and seek to provide health care and some food, Zeid said it was not enough because the EU and its member states have done nothing so far to reduce the level of abuses suffered by migrants.
