At least 65 bodies found in mass grave in Libya desert, UN agency

A mass grave containing the bodies of at least 65 migrants has been discovered in Libya, the UN’s International Organization for Migration (IOM) said.In a statement on Friday, March 22, the IOM said that it was “profoundly shocked and alarmed”.

“The circumstances of their death and nationalities remain unknown, but it is believed that



they died in the process of being smuggled through the desert. Each report of a missing migrant or a loss of life represents a grieving family searching for answers about their loved ones or acknowledging the tragedy of the loss. The cost of inadequate action is evident in the increasing human deaths and the disturbing conditions migrants find themselves in.” the IOM said.
