Six refugees shot dead at overcrowded Libyan prison camp

Tripoli, October 11 (RHC)-- In Libya, at least six refugees were shot dead over the weekend by guards at an overcrowded prison camp.  In recent weeks, armed forces in western Libya have detained over 5,100 refugees — including hundreds of children — as part of a sweeping crackdown. 

On Sunday, hundreds of refugees gathered outside a United Nations facility in Tripoli trying to escape from Libya.  One refugee, Fatima, is from Sudan.  She told reporters: "I want to leave Libya.  I want to evacuate us from Libya.  This is what I want.  We are tired and we have no food and no shelter.  They attacked us with bullets.  They took us to jail with no food or water.  Even the children have nothing to eat.”
