The Libyan Red Crescent (LRC) launched on Thursday a humanitarian appeal to help migrants stranded on the Libyan-Tunisian border.
The LRC said that these stranded African migrants need protection, food, and medicine, highlighting that it is working in cooperation with UN organizations to provide comprehensive humanitarian relief through the LRC teams.
The LRC called on Twitter to help these people in these difficult conditions.
A Libyan human rights organization had expressed its concern about what it described as preliminary information regarding the deaths of illegal migrants and asylum seekers on the Libyan-Tunisian border.
The National Commission for Human Rights in Libya (NCHRL) said in a statement on Thursday, that preliminary information indicates the deaths of three migrants, including a woman, as a result of their survival without food or water amidst bad weather and high temperatures in remote desert areas where all the necessities of life are lacking.
The NCHRL added that the victims who died as a result of the inhuman suffering were among the migrants who were transferred by the Tunisian authorities from several Tunisian states in which they were present to the Libyan-Tunisian border.
