UNHCR evacuates more than 100 refugees from Libya to Rwanda

The U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has facilitated the evacuations of more than 100 refugees, including 38 children, on a flight out of Libya to Rwanda, announced the U.N. agency on Thursday.

“They will receive shelter and assistance at the Emergency Transit Mechanism in Gashora,” UNHCR added via Twitter.

The agency reported yesterday that it helped 41 refugees leave Libya on flights to be resettled in Norway this week.
