The EU Pact is a brutal escalation of Europe's deadly deterrence machine. It intensifies harmful containment policies.

The Pact normalises unlawful detention and undermines the fundamental right to seek asylum. The Pact will create a dystopian reality for People.

People may increasingly be pushed into precarious existence where they lose access to healthcare, work, and social protection, forcing them to live in the shadows with their lives at constant risk, stripped of basic human rights.

They started pushing us and creating waves. I tried to climb onto the big Greek boat, but someone from the smaller Greek boat hit me. People were screaming and drowning” — male survivor, March 2026

Thousands of people risk their lives crossing the Mediterranean in search of safety. Saving lives at sea is not a choice — it is a humanitarian and legal duty. For #RefugeeWeek2026, join us for a screening of The Sea Between Us. 📍 Kif Kif, Rome | 📆 18 June, 7 PM

⚫️Another avoidable tragedy: 10 people have died in a shipwreck, while 48 were rescued. This is the result of Malta’s continued failure to assist people in distress, and the EU’s refusal to provide safe passage for those seeking refuge in Europe.

The bodies of 10 migrants were recovered near Malta, according to a statement from the Italian Coast Guard released Sunday. Another 48 people were saved by a fishing boat. However, authorities were continuing to search for more victims. infomigrants.net/en/post/717…

After being rescued in the Mediterranean, survivors urgently want to reassure their families they are alive. But at sea, there’s no network. 📲Since Jan 2023, TSF has enabled 7,500 survivors to send a safe, pre‑set message to loved ones — bringing relief to their families.

🆘 49 people adrift in the Central Mediterranean! Alarm Phone was called by a group who fled #Libya, but run out of fuel in the #Maltese search and rescue zone. The boat is adrift since hours already. Authorities are informed. The people need immediate rescue! @Armed_Forces_MT

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) takes this moment seriously: without meaningful amendments, the bill locks into Greek law the border policies that have already produced violence, unlawful pushbacks, and systematic human suffering across Europe.

🎥"One refugee in, one refugee out, it makes no sense." Um Mohammad fled Darfur. Her house was burned. Her papers too. Her son has no birth certificate, and neither does her daughter, born in Libya.

🆘 ~40 people in distress south of #Crete! We were informed about another group on their way to Greece, who urgently needs rescue! In total we know of 6 boats in distress. @HCoastGuard is alerted but refuses further information. We demand immediate rescue & #SafePassage now!
