Pope Francis on Sunday called for the evacuation of refugees held in detention camps in Libya, particularly women and children, as fighting there escalates.
I make an appeal that especially the women, children and sick can be evacuated as soon as possible through humanitarian corridors, Francis said at the Sunday prayer at the Vatican.
Their situation, which is already very serious, has become even more dangerous due to the ongoing conflict, he said.
A group of around 140 refugees is expected to arrive in Rome from Libya on Monday. [ ]
Libya, long a major transit route for migrants desperate to reach Europe, is home to around 6,000 migrants who are held in official detention centers, according to the International Organization for Migration. Hundreds more are held by armed groups elsewhere in the war-hit country.

Send them to Red China
Why is this idiot worried about the cult that’s been at war with the rest of the world for 1400 years?
This is a major screw-up thanks to Hillary and Obama.
Theres lots of room at the Vatican.
Just saying.
L
Send the Swiss Guards.
Sure, send them all to the Vatican.
pope: send them $500g.
I saw the headline on Drudge about the Pope Funding Caravans.
I don’t know how accurate that claim is, but it would not surprise me. I do find it highly disturbing that the Pontiff would authorize such direct meddling in the immigration affairs of other nations. He seems to want everything that most posters here do not want. I’m waiting for his retirement.
Is he opening the Vatican for them???
Libya, another US Success Story.
Obama and Hillary can claim it, and Trump can claim Syria since he said we would leave, but didn’t. I guess he will be able claim Iran and Venezuela, too.
Meanwhile, the soft coup on the Southern Border continues.
Francis, tear down that Vatican Wall!
Worst pope ever.....He shows how gay and leftist the Vatican is. With its high walls built after the Vatican was sacked by the Muzz about 1000 AD or so.
Aiding and abetting the wannabe invaders using donations fome Peter’s Pence
Yeah, mostly since Gaddafi was overthrown and murdered with the ill advised assistance from Obama and Hillary. This mass migration through Libya is one of Hillary's major foreign policy 'accomplishments'.
It’s one thing to remove Gaddafi, and yet another thing to allow chaos to reign in the aftermath, which is obviously what The Won wanted.
Don’t forget Gaddafi himself (an Arab national socialist) overthrew his predecessor, King Idris, who was more friendly to the US and UK and helped with both military bases and the country’s oil industry.
Doesn’t he have his own plane available, and his pope mobile?
So every nation represented here today can take pride in the innocent lives we saved and in helping Libyans reclaim their country. It was the right thing to do.”
After four decades of darkness, they (the Libyan people) can walk the streets, free from a tyrant.
We came, we saw, he died. Ha, Ha, Ha.
They did want the place to descend into chaos indeed. And after what it took us to whip Gaddafi himself into shape too.
I remember our guys being forced to fight alongside a ‘kinder, gentler al-qaeda’ in Libya.
