On Monday, the German NGO Sea Watch asked the Tunisian coastguard for help in rescuing migrants in the Mediterranean, in vain. Tunis never responded to their call. However, the country has had a "search and rescue center" (MRCC) since June to rescue anyone in distress off its coast, in international waters. read more

The situation is far from ‘under control’. The externalisation of borders has made it increasingly difficult to reach and cross the sea. More and more often, people who try to cross the sea are arrested on the beach or violently intercepted at sea - thanks to the naval assets provided to Libya and Tunisia by Italy - beaten, forcibly transferred to the Libyan and Algerian borders, sometimes abandoned and left to die in the desert, sometimes exposed to those chain rejections that international law prohibits. read more

NGOs rescuing migrants in the Mediterranean, north of Libya, are forced to disembark people rescued from shipwrecks hundreds of kilometers away, instead of bringing them to the nearest safe port. This has been happening since January 2023, due to Italian authorities' practice of assigning distant ports for the landing of rescue ships. read more

“This is a historical fact: a piece of Italian territory is considered as if it were not Italy. It is the first ever application of the fiction of non-entry,” comments Salvatore Fachile, a lawyer with the Association for Legal Studies on Immigration (Asgi). In his hands he has the order validating the detention of a Tunisian asylum seeker in the Porto Empedocle center: it was signed yesterday at 1:40 p.m. by Judge Michele Guarnotta of the Palermo court. read more

Why is there such a decline when there are more refugees and migrants travelling around the world than ever before? The fact that fewer are arriving in Italy by sea has to do with what is happening in Tunisia and Libya. The EU and Italy have concluded agreements with both countries. Money is flowing to Tunis and Tripoli in return for stopping migrants there. In 2023, the EU promised Tunisia 105 million euros for this, and Italy and France want to give more money. read more
