@JeremyKonyndyk hi Jeremy, could you please follow back?

[Steve Purbrick @spurbrick]

@cochetel Strongly agree. What was the message on protection advocacy that you brought to MOCADEM, exactly? https://t.co/UJcAlhlNLF

Many are rightly connecting the tragedy of Derna with entrenched & systematic corruption in Libya. Along with @renadmansour & @linakhatibUK my new paper looks at how ‘elite bargains’ have institutionalised these dynamics in Libya, Iraq and Lebanon. A 🧵. https://t.co/LAdwNJkV8k

Quirky breaking news: activist @Sarita_Libre appears to have discovered the identity of the person behind @rgowans, a mysterious account at the centre of the Mediterranean migration information wars. Her post in Italian here, and a small 🧵

#Rgowans ha fatto un errore madornale ed il #JLProject ha scoperto la sua vera identità:

"Vendeva lampade vintage usando la stessa email con la quale scriveva a #Frontex".

@cochetel Maybe we could team up and prosecute the mothers of migrants who travel to Libya?

[Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) France @MSF_france]

.@cochetel Vos propos sont inexcusables et scandaleux. Ils démontrent un mépris et une méconnaissance du sort des personnes contraintes de fuir leur pays au péril de leur vie. @Refugees est-ce la vision que vous avez de votre mandat de protection des réfugiés ?

[Steve Purbrick @spurbrick]

Is this an official UNHCR position on Libya @carogluck ?

[vincent cochetel @cochetel]

Grieving for the loss. But the same mothers had no problem encouraging or funding their children to embark on those dangerous journeys. Like in Senegal, symbolically prosecuting parents for putting at risk their children could trigger serious attitudinal change on death journeys.

[Steve Purbrick @spurbrick]

@cochetel Ah yes, it’s the mothers’ fault. I am very intelligent.

[Mat Nashed @matnashed]

Or maybe Europe should offer legal channels, end its war on smuggling, and its neo-liberal and authoritarian policies that push people to risk their lives in hope of building a future.

Instead, this UNHCR envoy blames the parents of those who drowned at sea.

Disgraceful.

Are you in the hunt for a five-bedroom Virginia villa? Well the Haftar family is putting its vast property portfolio up for a fire sale. War crimes trials are expensive

❗️ After nearly 7 days stranded at sea, the 659 survivors are exhausted and exposed to the heat. Their psychological well-being is at stake after the tragic experience they went through. This situation cannot last any longer. They need a place of safety, now.

Here, @Murtalaibin rewinds to some of the defining moments that paved the way for the emergence and brutality of Boko Haram. Were there alternative paths to extinguish the fire and prevent the subsequent humanitarian crisis? Here’s a brief history.
