? 300,00+ Libyans have become internally displaced ? 700 refugees+migrants have died at sea in 2019 trying to flee Libya Support is much-needed. But support to search+rescue actors must be conditional on people NOT being returned to detention centres https://t.co/1RkTylLpX8

Concerning, if true. Sea rescue is a humanitarian imperative. There should be no attempts to shift responsibility, especially when doing so means return to war and violence in Libya. https://t.co/V7ZexZk3Zp

Sad news. Death toll amongst refugees+migrants attempting to cross the Med close to Lanzarote rises to 8. Thanks to Spanish rescue services who have brought some to safety. https://t.co/06yKgOc6RU

The bombing of Tajoura detention centre was a despicable act that cost more than 50 people their lives. The coordinates of the centre, holding hundreds of refugees+migrants, was well known. Those responsible must be held to account https://t.co/WJ7feYDQL2

Fascinating read by @A_Loyd_Times on breaking Shamima Begum story, his friend James Foley+coming face to face with ISIS while covering the war in Syria. On Begum, a much-needed offering of grey, on a debate that has only been portrayed as black+white https://t.co/EQBQFcnPoa

Alongside global efforts to address climate change, UNHCR is working with partners to reduce environmental impact of refugee crises including: - renewable energy - reforestation - clean fuels and technology - reducing our operational footprint ??? https://t.co/m6HHm6aHNb

More+more people forced to flee their homes, in part due to climate-related factors. Already stretched resources are putting put under increasing strain. East and Horn of Africa is already home to some of the most underfunded refugee crises in the world. https://t.co/LU4R9rgHmP https://t.co/aB37DloqUK
