More from @RefugeesinLibya

Oct 2, 2022
On this 1st Oct 2021,we started to organise ourselves with the aim of giving a voice to ourselves,to denounce the ill-treatment that we received in Libya for so many years

Therefore,we named ourselves @RefugeesinLibya

At the end of this thread is an important announcement

1/22
During the first week of October, we suffered enormous pains, hunger and thirst and endured all sorts of humiliation when the @UNHCRLibya closed their doors in the face of the most needy people.

But we resisted and continued to be our own voices despite the difficulties.

2/22
On the 8th Oct thousands of those detained in Al #Mabani concentration camp went on a hunger strike, they escaped & arrived at our encampment in front of @UNHCRLibya headquarters.

In the course of freeing the concentration camp, dozens were shot dead and 100s wounded.

RACISM TOWARDS BLACK AFRICANS IN LIBYA BY BOTH THE GOVERNMENT AND UNHCR LIBYA.

Today's incident which got one of our brothers stabbed and wounded by the security guards, came slightly after scrutiny of the mess that we have been living in and the RACISM 1/19
that we are subjected to. In recent years refugees have seen and complained against the trajectory of Syrian refugees indulged and pampered by the UNHCR staff.
Syrian Nationals or Arabs precisely do not take or wait in line when they come to the UNHCR office 2/19
both at the door and in the sitting rooms. They are usually allowed to enter ,and no security guards prevents them or stops them, UNHCR staffs & its security guards never told them stand in a line with the African refugees, we have been witnessing these racism since 2017 3/19
