The EU’s border agency, Frontex, uses aerial surveillance in the central Mediterranean to facilitate interceptions by the Libyan Coast Guard, knowing the nightmarish abuse people face upon return to Libya.
🇪🇺 A 120-page report from the EU's anti-fraud watchdog says Frontex was involved in covering up the illegal pushback of migrants from Greece to Turkey, violating their human rights.
Nearly 1 million Russian citizens have entered the European Union in the six months since their country invaded Ukraine, the EU’s border agency Frontex said Thursday
Over 2.5 million Ukrainians have returned to their home country since the war started - Frontex European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex) says 5.5 million Ukrainian citizens have fled to the EU since the beginning of the war in February.
5.3 million Ukrainians entered EU since the beginning of the invasion but 2.3 million have returned to Ukraine, EU border agency Frontex estimated. There are also about 5 million internally displaced people in Ukraine.
Mounting evidence suggests the Greek government has been secretly expelling thousands of migrants trying to reach its shores, often endangering them. The European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex) is aware of this practice and too often tolerates it.
Main migration routes. New stats from Frontex via @TheEconomist . The EU proposed relocation target is just pathetic.
