Some Nigerian children and women have been rescued from human traffickers by the 676th Infantry Battalion in Umm Al Aranib, Libya.
The security operatives on Friday raided the human traffickers’ den and arrested about 30 illegal migrants of which an unspecified number of Nigerian women and children were included.
The Migrant Rescue Watch disclosed this via its Twitter handle on Saturday.
Migrant Rescue Watch, however, said the victims have been handed over to the headquarters of the Reconnaissance Company of the 676th Infantry Battalion for basic humanitarian assistance.
The tweet read, “Patrol of Reconnaissance Company of the 676th Infantry Battalion in response to information received raided a smuggler’s den in Umm Al Aranib area and apprehended 30 undocumented #migrants incl. women and children of Nigerian nationality.
“The group was transferred to unit’s HQ in Umm Al Aranib for provision of basic humanitarian assistance prior to hand over to DCIM authorities.”
