MSF AUSTRALIA | LIBYA 2022
By the end of 2022, there were more than 650,000 migrants in Libya, with many people held in detention centres or in non-official centres scattered across the country. MSF continued to hear accounts from migrants who were subjected to multiple forms of ill treatment, such as physical abuse and sexual violence, as well as arbitrary arrests and detention in inhumane conditions, kidnapping, forced labour and other forms of exploitation. Our teams supported care for migrants as well as local people via support for a hospital in Misrata.
