8521. This is the number of refugees that have been illegally pushed back while trying to cross the Aegean Sea since March 2020. Mare Liberum collected information on 266 pushbacks, but the actual number is most likely much higher. This is because gathering information is difficult in a highly militarized borderzone where no civilian witness is present and facts are politically instrumentalized. read more

For years, thousands of migrants and refugees arriving from the Balkan route have transited through Trieste, a city on Italy's north-eastern border, only 10 kilometres from Slovenia. But the pandemic and the need to quarantine new arrivals presented new challenges for local and national governments along the so-called Balkan route, where thousands of migrants and refugees remain stranded since EU countries shut their borders in 2015. The UN has warned of an impending humanitarian crisis in the Balkans as winter sets in and thousands remain homeless. read more

The Coronavirus pandemic continues to severely affect migrants and refugees. Difficulties to enter the EU, increasing reports of pushbacks and violence at the borders, and worsening conditions in reception centres are some of the main concerns the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) identifies in its latest migration quarterly bulletin. At the same time, the European Commission’s new Migration and Asylum Pact kicks off new discussions about the future EU migration and asylum framework. read more

Aber auch Abschiebeflüge sind bereits geplant. Noch bevor der spanische Innenminister und die EU-Kommissarin auf Gran Canaria landeten, brachte die spanische Seenotrettung am Freitag das erste Boot mit mehr als 150 Migrant*innen an Land. read more

Il rapporto “Il sistema a un bivio”, realizzato da ActionAid e Openpolis, rivela la distruzione del sistema di accoglienza diffusa dei migranti nei CAS da Nord a Sud e il fallimento della gestione della pandemia del Coronavirus nella tutela della salute. [...] Un terzo delle prefetture hanno riscontrato difficoltà nell’assegnare i posti in accoglienza. Il capitolato di gara incentiva i centri di accoglienza di grandi dimensioni a scapito di quelli piccoli e distribuiti sul territorio, aumentando così, fra le altre cose il rischio di contagio da coronavirus read more

On 5 November 2020, the Administrative Court of Zagreb will deliver a decision on the appeal of Tajana Tadić's partner against the revokation of his refugee status. The Ministry of Interior initially revoked his refugee status on 11 May 2020 on allegations that he represents a “threat to national security”. Neither he nor his attorney have been given access to a part of his file which has been classified as “secret”, after the Ministry of Interior objected to their requests. read more

We found a personnel logbook in the ashes of Europe’s most notorious refugee camp, Moria, located on the Greek island of Lesbos. It shows the horrors that unaccompanied minors were left to endure, documented by the people who were there to protect them—even as they often felt unable and helpless to do so. read more
