ICRC: Thousands of Migrants Stranded in Libya

The international Red Cross has expressed concern about several thousand foreign migrants stranded in the open in the besieged Libyan port of Misrata.

The group was found living under tarpaulins and shelters by an International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) team that entered the city by sea for a day to evaluate medical conditions and aid needs.

ICRC spokesperson, Nicole Engelbrecht, has been quoted as saying that, "Our main concern right now is the stranded foreign nationals living in the vicinity of the port."
