Why are Eritreans fleeing their country?



Eritrea has accused the UN's refugee agency of forcibly relocating some of its citizens stranded in Libya to Niger.



n the past decade, thousands of Eritreans looking to improve their lives in Europehave become stranded in Libya
Detained during their illegal transit or rescued from drowning in the Mediterranean, refugees are sent to detention centres.
But the battle for control of the capital Tripoli has left them exposed to the dangers of war with some going days without food.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees has intervened and relocated migrants to safer areas, while sending some to other countries.
