Malaysian law makes all irregular entry and stay in the country a criminal offense, with no distinction among refugees, asylum seekers, trafficking victims, and undocumented migrants. read more

On Saturday, 2 March, the crew of the civilian rescue ship Humanity 1 was threatened several times by the so-called Libyan coast guard in the central Mediterranean. The refugees in distress at sea were also threatened at gunpoint when the crew tried to rescue them in international waters. On Saturday afternoon, the crew of the German-flagged Humanity 1 was able to rescue a total of 77 people from three boats in distress, despite the violent and unlawful intervention of the so-called Libyan coastguard. Numerous people jumped into the water in panic and the so-called Libyan coastguard fired a shot into the water. According to the survivors, one person was left behind by the Libyan patrol boat and most probably drowned. read more

On Sunday, Amnesty International’s Italy office issued a grave warning about the dire circumstances facing migrants in Libya, spotlighting the severe risks involved. In a statement, the organisation underscored the inherent dangers in repatriating migrants to Libya and the problematic nature of collaborating with the so called "Libyan Coast Guard".
