Five Iraqis have been released from detention in Libya for illegal migration, following three months of efforts by the Iraqi Embassy. The embassy continues to provide support and cautions potential migrants about safety risks in the context of illegal migration.
Ahmed Al-Sahaf, the Charge d’Affaires of the Iraqi Embassy in Libya, announced the release of five Iraqis detained in Libya for illegal migration. This release followed three months of complex and risky efforts, with the Iraqi Embassy collaborating with the Libyan Government of National Unity. The detainees had entered Libya illegally, aiming to migrate to Europe.
Following their release, the Iraqi Embassy provided necessary medical care and accommodation for the individuals. They also granted them laissez-passer passports to facilitate their voluntary return to Iraq. Al-Sahaf noted that this was part of a broader effort by the embassy, which had previously secured the release of numerous Iraqi migrants in recent months.
The embassy has emphasized the importance of voluntary migrant return and has made announcements via its website and social media platforms to caution young migrants about the risks of illegal migration. The ongoing initiatives aim to prevent deception by human trafficking networks, safeguarding the well-being of potential migrants. Al-Sahaf also reaffirmed the embassy’s commitment to continuing efforts to secure the release of additional migrants and facilitate their return to Iraq.
In summary, five Iraqis have been successfully released from detention in Libya due to illegal migration, highlighting the efforts of the Iraqi Embassy. The embassy continues to provide support and has issued warnings to potential migrants, reinforcing the importance of caution and safety in the face of deceptive networks. The ongoing initiatives underscore a strong commitment to aiding Iraqis in similar situations.
