Tripoli - Arabstoday

Following the current critical events in Libya, hundreds of thousands of migrant workers, as well as people with international protection needs, have fled Libya to neighbouring countries over the course of the Libya crisis. However, many tens of thousands are believed to have remained in Tripoli and other areas. This has led to thousands of families getting killed and suffer from insecurity and a lack of food, medical aid and shelter. Therefore, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, António Guterres, today appealed to all sides of the conflict in Libya to ensure that the thousands of third-country nationals trapped in Tripoli and other areas by the ongoing fighting are properly protected from harm. \"Thousands of third-country nationals in Libya will be feeling great fear and uncertainty at this time,\" he said. \"We have seen at earlier stages in this crisis that such people, Africans especially, can be particularly vulnerable to hostility or acts of vengeance. It is crucial that humanitarian law prevails through these climactic moments and that foreigners – including refugees and migrant workers – are being fully and properly protected from harm.\" Another country suffering in the region is Syria, as it faces a similar crackdown as the one in Libya. A UN delegation arrived in Syria to assess humanitarian needs, as security forces continue to suppress anti-government protesters on Saturday. Syria\'s anti-government protests first erupted in mid-March while Libya\'s erupted in February of this year.
