Since Thursday, the "Ocean Viking" had taken in 374 people from sub-Saharan countries, including 165 minors, in four different operations off the Libyan coast of inflatable boats in distress. The NGO initially made a request to the Libyan coast guard to help bring the people to safety. After Libya did not respond, SOS Méditerranée asked the two closest EU countries, Malta and Italy, for help. A heavily pregnant woman had reportedly been flown to the island of Lampedusa earlier by Italian authorities. read more

Serbia's constitutional court has confirmed that the country has deported asylum-seekers to neighboring EU member state Bulgaria in contravention of international law. It was a frigid Saturday morning when Bulgarian police discovered a group of 25 Afghan people, including seven small children, in a forest close to the border with Serbia. They had spent the night outdoors. The police report states that the migrants were interrogated on February 4, 2017. Now, some four years later, in a landmark ruling exclusively seen by DW, Serbia's top court has confirmed that Serbian security personnel had illegally deported the asylum-seekers from Serbia, instead of issuing proper paperwork and accommodating them in a shelter. read more

The Court of Rome ruled that the readmission procedure enacted at the eastern Italian border based on an accord between Italy and Slovenia in 1996 is illegitimate. Judges upheld an appeal brought by a Pakistani asylum seeker who arrived in Trieste and was readmitted in July to Slovenia, then to Croatia and then to Bosnia. Readmissions of migrants from Italy to Slovenia are illegitimate, ruled the Court of Rome in an ordinance on January 18 when it upheld an urgent appeal brought by a Pakistani asylum seeker. The man had arrived in Trieste and was readmitted in July 2020 to Slovenia, from there to Croatia, and further on to Bosnia. Judges said the man has the right to immediately enter Italy to apply for asylum. The decision, obtained by attorneys Caterina Bove and Anna Brambilla from the Association for Juridical Studies on Immigration (ASGI), is being hailed by the left, while right-wing parties League and Forza Italia are up in arms. read more
