asylum seekers

Turkish authorities spent the months leading up to the military offensive in Syria forcibly deporting hundreds of Syrian refugees back to the war-torn country, a new Amnesty International report reveals.

Currently people seeking asylum are banned from working while their claims are being processed by the Home Office.

Vulnerable people refused asylum in the UK, including pregnant women and those with serious mental health conditions, are being left homeless and unable to feed or clothe their families.

An Australian bill to change the current system of medical transfers would risk the health of refugees and asylum seekers in Papua New Guinea and Nauru, Human Rights Watch says.
