Human traffickers, paramilitaries, mass graves - none of that seems to be stopping migrants from coming to Libya. "They intended to hand over us migrants to the Libyan authorities and everyone knows what happens then," said the teenager. The UN calls for an investigation into mass graves in Libya"We are constantly witnessing widespread violations of the human rights of migrants, refugees and asylum seekers in Libya," Liz Trosel, spokeswoman for the United Nations Office for Human Rights, told DW. According to the UN, these violations include human trafficking, torture, forced labor, extortion, starvation in unbearable conditions of detention, mass deportations and human trafficking. For Lauren Seibert, who focuses on the rights of refugees and migrants at the human rights organization Human Rights Watch, international pressure could play a key role.
