A video, published on November 17, shows the conditions of Moroccan migrants in an overcrowded prison in Zuwarah (Libya) near the Tunisian border. About thirty men are crammed in the same room without windows. There is no official figure on the number of Moroccan migrants held captive in Libya.

"Algerians, Tunisians and Egyptians have all been repatriated. Everyone except Moroccans, "says a man in the video. According to him, 260 Moroccans have been detained in this center for six months.
