“Refugees to be evacuated from Tripoli,”
“the UN refugee agency (UNHCR) has evacuated 325 people from the refugee camp of Qasr Bin Gashir in the vicinity of the Libyan capital Tripoli. The reason is the lack of security and the escalation of fighting in the area, then the warlord Khalifa Haftar launched an offensive against the UN-backed government in Tripoli on 4 april.”
“The last two weeks have been a total of 825 people evacuated in four batches to the city of al-Zawiya in the northwest of Libya.”
“the UNHCR has requested that an additional 3,000 refugees who are in detention shall be released.”
