After the deportation to the Algerian border that took place this morning, refugees from Choucha are now on the Algerian side of the Algerian-Tunisian border near Monte Chambi, that is also a dangerous military zone. The Tunisian police left them at the border, and the tunisian BAT (Brigade antiterrorisme) pushed them beyond the border, saying that if the refugees would have not crossed the frontier, they would have shot them.

The Algerian police wants them to re-cross the Tunisian border.

They are in Algeria, at the border crossing point of Bou Chekba.

We are looking for contacts with Algerian lawyers and associations to keep the refugees in safety.

On August 24th, 10 refugees and migrants who are still living at Choucha camp, near the Libyan border of Ras-Jadir, have been arrested in front of the EU delegation in Tunis while they were demanding to be relocated in Europe.

This morning at 5 am they have been taken to the Algerian border, despite both Tunisian and International organizations were informed of their detention in the prison of Ouardia, in Tunis. we received a call from the refugees this early morning, and Tunisian authorities have now stolen their phone, so the people cannot be reached anymore. Tunisian authorities are doing that in a completely arbitrary way, while international organisations remain silent.

Tunisia, the humanitarian emergency of the Choucha refugee camp

Written by Lamia Ledrisi

The so-called “Arab Spring”, among its multiple outgrowths, has generated a new massive flow of immigrants from North Africa towards Europe. The 2011 Libyan civil war resulted in one million refugees moving to the neighboring countries, which Tunisia was the most affected one with almost 350.000 migrants arriving from Libya, according to IOM data.

El campo de refugiados de Bouchucha, el reino de los olvidados

El tunecino campo de refugiados de Bouchucha, junto a la frontera libia, fue levantado por la ONU mientras occidente derrocaba a Gadafi. Después se marcharon dejando a sus residentes a merced de las mafias

Deia

Un reportaje de Javier Martín

Aescasos siete kilómetros de la problemática frontera con Libia, un puñado de raídas tiendas de campaña con el logotipo de la ONU y de cetrinas chabolas reúnen todas las miserias que hacen florecer la inmigración ilegal a Europa. Levantado en 2011 por el Alto Comisionado de las Naciones Unidas para los Refugiados (Acnur) para acoger al flujo de subsaharianos que huían de los bombardeos de la OTAN y del alzamiento rebelde en Libia, hace meses que ningún funcionario aparece por sus áridas tierras infestadas de bolsas de plástico y botellas vacías.

Last Refugees in Choucha, Tunisia

The UNHCR Choucha Refugee Camp opened in 2011, just seven kilometres away from the Tunisia-Libya border crossing of Ras Ajdir, to help the thousands of people fleeing the conflict in Libya. Most of the those who fled in 2011 returned home but some 4,000 could not go back for fear of persecution. These individuals were granted refugee status by the UNHCR and took refuge in the Choucha Camp. Tunisia did not – and still does not – consider applicants for refugee status. According to UNHCR, most of the refugees from Choucha have already been taken by the United States (1,717) and Norway (485). The EU has been fairly strict on resettlement; Germany took the most refugees at 201, Britain took three, Italy two and France one.

However, some still remain as they have nowhere else to go.

A brief report from Choucha refugee camp in Tunisia, close to the Ras Jadir border with Lybia

Choucha, that space still exists

Three years and half after the opening of Choucha refugee camp, nine kilometers from the Libyan border of Ras Jadir and in the midst of the Tunisian desert, about 150 people still live there despite UNHCR officially closed the camp in June 2013. The tents are placed just few meters from the main road that connects Tunisia and Libya, and so people at Choucha wait that Libyans leave them food and water. In fact, UNHCR had already stopped to give food and water to the rejected refugees in October 2012, pushing them to abandon the camp and suggesting people to return to Libya or to their country of origin with IOM’s return projects.

Lettre ouverte

Trois années et demi se sont écoulées depuis l’ouverture du camp de réfugiés de Choucha sur le sol tunisisen, que restait-il du passage des réfugiés du conflit libyen et qu’elles étaient les personnes qui vivaient encore à Choucha. À quelles difficultés s’exposaient aujourd’hui les réfugiés non-reinstallés présents en Tunisie, demandeurs d’asile et “débouté(e)s” de ce droit ?
