Many of the refugees detained in Australia are of a specific category – people who arrived by boat after July 2013, when Canberra made a series of deals with countries in the Pacific that meant that refugees who came by sea would be sent there for processing and would never be allowed to settle permanently in Australia. But while they were recognised as refugees under a status determination process by the governments in PNG and Nauru, once evacuated to Australia they were detained, and that for years. They can be released only if one of the three ministers in the Department of Home Affairs, aka "the Minister", agrees to grant them a temporary bridging visa, allowing them to live in the community while they await resettlement. read more

In a press release on Tuesday (February 15), the Council of Europe's Commissioner for Human Rights, Dunja Mijatovic said: "Disagreements with other member states about disembarkation responsibilities should never be allowed to put human rights -- including the right to life -- at risk or exempt the authorities from their non-refoulement obligations." In a report on her visit to Malta last October, Mijatovic also stressed that Libya is not a safe place to disembark migrants intercepted at sea. To that end, the commissioner urged Maltese authorities to review their cooperation with the so-called "Libya's coast guard", which returns migrants to the country in order to prevent unauthorised migration to Europe. read more

Il 'grande cimitero' del Mediterraneo evocato da Papa Francesco è tornato ad accogliere vittime in una domenica di naufragi e sbarchi tra la Libia e le coste siciliane e calabresi. Un gommone di migranti diretti a Lampedusa è stato speronato in acque internazionali da un peschereccio libico e, dei 21 che si trovavano a bordo, cinque sono finiti in mare. Solo due di loro sono stati salvati dai compagni di viaggio: gli altri tre, una donna somala e due uomini ivoriani, sono scomparsi inghiottiti dalle acque. read more

The border agency in Warsaw could deploy drones, vessels and personnel. It would be the first mission in a country that does not directly border the EU. Frontex is already active in the country, but without uniformed and armed police personnel. The new talks with Senegal are coordinated in the recently created „Operational Coordination Mechanism for the External Dimension of Migration“ (MOCADEM). The basis would be a „model status agreement“ drafted by the Commission on the basis of Frontex missions in the Western Balkans. Senegal is surrounded by more than 2,600 kilometres of external border, it is therefore possible that a Frontex operation in Senegal will not focus on securing the land borders as in the Western Balkans, but on monitoring the maritime border. read more

In its coalition agreement, the German government has agreed on new rules on the right to stay. Many refugees have high hopes for the announced right to stay. But until it takes effect, people will continue to be deported - even those who would benefit from the new rules. Anticipatory regulations could prevent this. read more

The commissioning of the planned deportation centre at BER is planned for 2025. The Greens and the Left are critical of the building project. "I was in deportation custody in Spain for a fortnight. All our things were taken from us. There were no windows, only bare walls, we didn't know if it was day or night," a woman refugee tells the 400 or so demonstrators who have gathered in Schönefeld on Wednesday evening. They are here to demonstrate against the planned entry and exit centre at BER airport. "Let's keep fighting until there are no more deportation centres," shouts the activist from the No Border Assembly Berlin to the cheers of those present. "Deportation is torture, deportation is murder," echoed her. read more
