Libya: Over 100 Migrants "Tortured & Starved" | Firstpost Africa | Subscribe to Firstpost | N18G More than 100 migrants, including five women, have been rescued from a human trafficking ring in eastern Libya, highlighting the horrific abuses faced by those attempting to reach Europe. The victims were held in inhumane conditions in a warehouse in Ajdabiya, subjected to torture, starvation, and extortion for ransom, with visible signs of beatings. Libyan security forces have arrested at least five traffickers and demolished the site, providing medical care to the survivors. This incident is not isolated. Libya remains a perilous transit route for migrants fleeing conflict and poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa. Thousands endure dangerous journeys across the desert and Mediterranean, frequently falling prey to traffickers and gangs. --- Libya | Europe | Ajdabiya | Sub-Saharan Africa | Firstpost Africa | Alyson Le Grange | Africa | Global South | Geopolitics | Military Coup | Environment | Climate Change | Firstpost | News Live | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | News | Trending News #libya #europe #ajdabiya #subsaharanafrica #firstpostafrica #africa #alysonlegrange #globalsouth #militarycoup #firstpost #newslive #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #news #internationalnews #trendingnews Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
