4:19 pm
100 percent worse we. love it there was not enough food. once every 2 days we were given a small portion of past dry bread and a little water it's no way to live for someone who has to stay there longer. people were dying of diseases in injuries they suffered i believe that there are barely any healthy migrants in detention. now i mean as living in a camp run by the un refugee agency she hopes some country will take her and she doesn't care which one as long as it's safe. and a sunday morning really is the u.n. agency ours representatives here and you share she works closely with her colleagues in libya and knows the conditions there. me what happens in these centers is is the contrary of life is the contrary of respect is the contrary of human rights and it's the contrary of the right for every person to feel protected
4:20 pm
she believes the international community needs to do more as almost 5000 refugees are still being held in libyan detention centers that everybody should feel responsible to make this stop and to find a tentative human i'll turn it if. we fly on to august to learn how the evacuees from libya are doing the city in central new shares known as the gateway to the sahara but you're never going to i get to hear what some 1600 refugees all rescued from libya live in this un run camp it's a tent city in the desert. here we need it to him from sudan that's what he wants to be called for security reasons he tells us he was thrown in jail and then sold into slavery. ok member. autos like slaves.
4:21 pm
and they said we will let you we're going to get money for it. but in the end we didn't get any money. or nothing but he said you're a slave be a black man and even woke us up in the middle of the night to torture us. we show him videos secretly recorded by refugees they remind him of his own experiences. on the going is over when i see these pictures i remember my friend who was killed in the jail. he was my best friend. in libya lawlessness doesn't only exist in government prisons the ongoing civil war has left the country controlled by different militias and largely in a legal vacuum. migrants in particular are often viewed as fair game. matty i'm from sudan was abducted in broad daylight. to give us
4:22 pm
a good and i went out to go to a shop 3 men grabbed me and forced me into a car where they raped me right there on the street and just threw me out onto the road. to this day one is haven't healed she says the doctor just gives so sedatives nothing that really helps. i'm tired i'm very tired. for 4 months i've been losing blood. i never get better treatment. i'm so tired for months i've been going to the medical center but i just don't get better treatment. here in new zealand she finally feels safe but she's plagued with fears about her future her neighbor as shasta concerns. so tell me how are you doing these days not well. that. i feel
4:23 pm
like i have no future. i've suffered so much. of that. was a little but i want my children to go to school and learn something. so that they don't end up illiterate like me. many migrants still come through i get us on their way to libya no one knows exactly how many at its peak some 330000 people a year crossed through august the town has long been a stopping place for people from west africa our route to find work in libya or idea the city profited from their presence but that came to an end in 2015 when north with migration was officially halted the european union agreed to pay over a 1000000000 euros in aid in exchange for news or closing the border with its neighbors to the north development aid as payback for stopping migrants trying to
4:24 pm
make their way to europe a deal nobody would admit to officially with this deal as good as main source of income disappeared stores like there's no longer have many customers. he has been affected by the border closure too he calls himself up there as he's a people smuggler since 2015 his job has become a criminal offense so he won't risk showing his face he says the journey has also become more dangerous for migrants drivers must take more remote routes and of a military patrol approaches there just drop off the migrants in the desert and flee many die of thirst. to the world. more people are dying in the sahara than before and you don't know where they are they say here is huge so you find them 3 or 6 months after they die. why do you have these like for morals. abdel-aziz also knows about the torture chambers
4:25 pm
often migrants 1st stop in libya he has his own reasoning why that is so that the migrants largely brought this upon themselves. he explains that if refugees can't pay for their trip through the desert the drivers sell them to torture us mainly members of criminal gangs or militias he says after all his drivers have to make ends meet. when was it the booming what if they say i spent money on your behalf i want to get it back and turn a profit like that that's why they started torturing people. for him there's no room for compassion business as business. is because if it didn't help migrants are. supposed to do this to earn a living i wouldn't do anything that's against the law to help them and. many
4:26 pm
refugees are aware of the dangers but they won't let that deter them to find out why we make our way to one of the so-called to get tolls on the outskirts of. here people smugglers hide migrants away until they are enough of them to turn a profit each passenger must pay around $500.00 u.s. dollars for the trip through the sahara. he is one of them he's already set off 3 times but each time he was picked up by the military at the libyan border. now did you sort of know the route through the desert is not could there be no problem in libya and the mediterranean aren't good either. but what else should i do when you have no other option you must have a clear goal and it that we need and the goal for everyone here is europe there's no question about that as a guinea and man has little chance of being granted the right to stay in europe but that won't stop him. you know the europe wants to close the border here we
4:27 pm
the young africans of the 21st century are fed up with europe. or not modern day lit up i'm going to report on even though i want to go to europe i hate europe but question that that's why because these days europe couldn't survive without africa if it weren't for good reason africa is rich in diamonds and uranium you know premier produce here is the biggest uranium producer where you can and yet we pity its children and if you've been to my country get me a is one of the biggest producers of box right after australia and it's going to. operate with that only if i study geology and i know that. but who profits right make me. who makes me angry it makes me sick at heart when i see there's a no phobia the masquerade for me what is europe doing to us. the anger and despair people here but so is the hope for
