Any migrant arriving in Italy can, in theory, present their asylum request. However, human rights groups gathering together under the ASGI (Italian Association for Juridical Studies on Immigration) umbrella are worried that new rules, which came into force on February 1, could potentially prove a barrier to some migrants beginning that process. Migrants who wish to seek asylum have to do so by presenting their request at an Italian questura, or police headquarters, and for that you now need a proof of vaccination against COVID-19 to enter the questura, the so-called the Green Pass. Even undocumented migrants in Italy could, in theory, get hold of a Green Pass and be vaccinated. But access to these procedures can vary across the country. read more

Si è concluso in tragedia il tentativo di una donna venezuelana di raggiungere l’arcipelago di Trinidad e Tobago a bordo di un gommone: la Guardia costiera locale ha aperto il fuoco contro il natante non identificato che nella tarda serata di sabato 5 febbraio era entrato nelle acque territoriali del piccolo Stato caraibico. Letale il proiettile che ha raggiunto il bambino di nove mesi che la donna teneva in braccio, una vicenda che ha suscitato le proteste delle associazioni in difesa dei diritti umani e su cui Caracas ha sollecitato un’inchiesta. read more

Trinidad and Tobago Coast Guard officers fired at a boat carrying Venezuelan migrants Saturday night, wounding a mother and killing the baby in her arms. The fatal shooting took place as officers tried to stop a boat crossing the Venezuelan border into Trinidad and Tobago, in what the island nation’s officials described as an act of self-defense, according to a Coast Guard statement. Only after the ship stopped did the Coast Guard realize there were migrants “hidden” on board, according to the statement. The wounded mother told her relatives that the captain of the boat wanted to turn back to Venezuela when he saw the Coast Guard, but the Guard followed them and started shooting at the engines. read more

More and more migrants are trying to enter France from Spain through the area bordering the Mediterranean, via the French village of Cerbère. Before 2021, the majority of new arrivals came via the Atlantic coast, towards Irun and Hendaye, in the Basque Country. To avoid police checks, deployed in large numbers in the area, the migrants take more risks and go through the dangerous railway tunnel. The majority of migrants who pass through the Vermeille coast are from Algeria. The Hirak Movement, the popular protest movement that started in February 2019, had revived the hopes of Algerian youth, plagued by a lack of work and prospects. But, more than two years later, their expectations have been disappointed. read more

Civilian search and rescue vessels Aita Mari and Geo Barents have saved and disembarked hundreds of survivors in Lampedusa and Sicily in the latest week of January. An Italian Court has acquitted rescuers from the NGO Mediterranea Saving Humans, shelving the investigation against them. Nearly 100 organisations have called for Italy to axe its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Libya. Amongst other egregious crimes, people on the move in Libya are exposed to land border pushbacks. read more
