Reports show that more than 300 migrants from Iraqi Kurdistan were detained and tortured by Libyan militias while trying to travel to the United Kingdom.

報告顯示，超過 300 名試圖前往英國的伊拉克庫德族移民在利比亞被民兵拘留並遭受酷刑。

The crisis began because of a money dispute between a smuggler named Noah Aaron, who is currently in a French prison, and a Libyan militia. As a result, the migrants were kept in terrible conditions with very little food and no space. The militia demanded $5,000 from each person and threatened to remove their organs to force them to pay. While the BBC reported at least one death and families mentioned surgical scars, it has not been officially proven that organs were removed.

這次危機始於一名目前在法國監獄服刑、名為 Noah Aaron 的走私者與利比亞民兵之間的金錢糾紛。因此，移民被安置在極其惡劣的環境中，食物匱乏且空間狹小。民兵要求每人支付 5,000 美元，並威脅要摘除他們的器官以強迫支付。雖然 BBC 報導了至少一名死亡病例，且家屬提到有手術疤痕，但尚未正式證明器官已被摘除。

This situation happens because many people are fleeing corruption and war in Iraq to reach the UK. Furthermore, it is very difficult to get legal help because Libya's government is split between two different administrations in Tripoli and the east. UN adviser Anthony Dunkerley emphasized that this lack of a central government allows armed groups to commit crimes without punishment. Additionally, Amnesty International has described Libya as a dangerous place where people are often arrested without reason or killed illegally.

這種情況之所以發生，是因為許多人為了抵達英國而逃離伊拉克的腐敗與戰爭。此外，由於利比亞政府分裂為位於的黎波立和東部的兩個不同行政部門，因此極難獲得法律援助。聯合國顧問 Anthony Dunkerley 強調，這種中央政府的缺失使得武裝組織在犯罪後無需承擔責任。此外，國際特赦組織將利比亞描述為一個危險之地，人們經常在沒有理由的情況下被逮捕或被非法殺害。

Some of the captives were sent back home by the Iraqi government, but the situation for migrants in Libya remains dangerous due to the country's political instability.

雖然伊拉克政府將部分被囚者送回國，但由於該國政治不穩，移民在利比亞的處境依然危險。
