A boat carrying 61 people en route to the Spanish Canary Islands sank in the Atlantic this weekend, leaving the Moroccan coast. At least 44 passengers died, including women and children, said the NGO Caminando fronteras. The Atlantic route to the Canary Islands, although extremely dangerous because of the currents, is used more in recent years by migrants wishing to reach Europe, because of the strengthening of controls in the Mediterranean. More than 4,000 deaths were recorded on the sea routes to Spain in 2021. read more

According to the Federal Ministry of the Interior, around 109,183 refugees from Ukraine have arrived in Germany as of Friday. Because they also do not have to register initially, the actual number of refugees is probably higher. Previously, some federal states had demanded more support from the federal government in the reception and distribution of Ukrainian war refugees. In view of the situation, Brandenburg's Minister President Dietmar Woidke (SPD) said that it was essential to set up additional central contact and registration points under the direction of the federal government. The leading associations of cities and municipalities also spoke out in favor of an even and "fair" distribution of war refugees. read more

The government has faced sustained criticism — including from many on its own side — because of the scramble to issue visas to Ukrainian refugees since the Russian invasion started two weeks ago. Since then, the government has made a number of U-turns and last-minute announcements to allow more Ukrainians to come to Britain, and the most recent of these policy shifts saw Housing Secretary Michael Gove announce Sunday that Brits would be offered £350 a month to host refugees from Ukraine in their homes. Home Office officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, consistently pointed to security considerations as the overriding priority promoted by ministers — and one of the main reasons for Britain’s delayed response. read more

Most of the 2.5 million refugees who have fled Ukraine have suffered traumatic experiences. "The first thing they need is safety, shelter, medical assistance. Those are the urgent things," Vanessa Höse from Xenion, a center for refugees and survivors of conflict in Berlin said. "But we also learned from what happened in 2015 that we need to have a long-term view and make sure that people receive psychological care for what they have been through." It's not just Ukrainian nationals who are in need of psychological support. Höse said that there are also many refugees who had fled from Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria and who were seeking asylum in Ukraine when the Russian invasion began and who had to escape yet another war. read more

The invasion of Ukraine has exposed anti-Arab and anti-Muslim bias across European policymaking and news media. For hundreds of thousands of hounded, rejected or stranded refugees and asylum-seekers, the revelations of prejudice and favoritism must come as no surprise, though. read more

Mercoledì la commissione Affari costituzionali della Camera ha adottato come testo base sulla riforma della cittadinanza quello presentato da Giuseppe Brescia del Movimento 5 Stelle, che prevede il cosiddetto ius scholae, ovvero la cittadinanza per chi ha fatto un percorso scolastico in Italia. Se approvata, estenderebbe la possibilità di ottenerla ai bambini e alle bambine nati in Italia o arrivati prima di avere compiuto 12 anni, dopo aver frequentato le scuole per 5 anni. read more

Among the refugees from Ukraine are predominantly women and children. There is a growing concern that criminals may exploit the plight of those seeking protection. The head of Jadwiga, a specialized counseling center that helps victims of human trafficking and forced prostitution, also called for the registration of host and guest when arranging private accommodation to protect women. In state-run shelters, women traveling alone must also be offered more protection, for example through separate rooms. read more

The EU is aiming to convince Iraqi authorities to withdraw their opposition to accepting deportations of Iraqi nationals, establish “smooth cooperation” on readmission and integrate “return, readmission and cooperation” into broader EU-Iraq cooperation on migration. This initiative fits within a wider punitive mechanism that includes monitoring cooperation on readmission by partner countries to promote the “external dimension of migration management”. The plans under discussion to encourage the resumption of forced and voluntary removals of Iraqi nationals from the EU do not appear to be affected by the human rights situation in the country. read more

The head of the UN's refugee agency has said the number of people fleeing Ukraine has now reached 2 million. Filippo Grandi warned that the second wave of refugees is likely to be more vulnerable than the first.

Last week, members of the House of Lords voted in favour of the Dubs amendment, which allows unaccompanied minors to join family members living on British soil. This decision, among others in the same vein, sounds like a crushing defeat for British Home Secretary Priti Patel. The amendment, welcomed by many NGOs, must still be validated by the House of Commons, the lower house of the British Parliament, in the coming weeks. read more
