Access to justice starts with access to information. For victims and survivors in Libya, engaging with the ICC is not always easy. Distance, complex procedures, and limited access to clear information can make it difficult to understand how the Court works and what rights victims have before it.

Today, #ICC Deputy Prosecutor Khan briefed the UNSC on the Court's work in #Libya, a day after the confirmation of charges hearing in the El #Hishri case concluded. We welcome the Prosecutor's appreciation for the role played by victim groups and CSOs in making this case possible.

Today, alleged Eritrean trafficker ‘Kidane’ is appearing before a Dutch court for crimes he is suspected of committing against migrants in Libya. While the case is important, it overlooks the systematicity, scale, and context of his actions.

The confirmation of charges hearing for Khaled Mohamed Ali El Hishri marks a significant step toward accountability for detention-related crimes in Libya, with allegations linked to Mitiga Prison in Tripoli now before the International Criminal Court (ICC).

#Libya’s human rights defenders are facing an increasingly dangerous reality as their private digital spaces are weaponised against them. What should be a secure channel for communication is being monitored by the Internal Security Agency (ISA) and used as a tool for interrogation and intimidation.

#LFJL welcomes the #ICC’s recent decision to refer Italy’s non-compliance to the Assembly of States Parties (#ASP). This referral follows Italy’s failure to surrender Osama Almasri Najim—a high-ranking Libyan official wanted for crimes against humanity and war crimes—to the Court in January 2025.

Yesterday’s #EuropeanCourtofHumanRights ruling in S.S. and Others v. Italy is a blow to justice + accountability. It misses the chance to affirm that EU and its Member States like #Italy cannot outsource responsibility for crimes committed against migrants + refugees in #Libya. t.co/GmqC0vWqam
