The EU did not pressure Libyan authorities to respect the rights of refugees and migrants, Amnesty said.
In a new report published on Thursday, Amnesty International criticised the EU and its member states for supporting the Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA) and its coastguard in its efforts to intercept refugees and migrants at sea and take them back to Libya, according to Aljazeera.
Amnesty has called on the European Union to reconsider its cooperation with Libya over “horrific abuses” being committed against refugees and migrants in the North African country.
Oil-rich Libya has become a key route for refugees and migrants wanting to reach Europe in the chaotic years since the 2011 overthrow and killing of longtime ruler Muammar Gaddafi in a NATO-backed uprising.
The International Organization for Migration and many others have long warned that it is not safe for migrants to be returned to the conflict-ridden country.
