New investigation: Greece continues to deny its coastguard had any role in the horrific shipwreck off Pylos. We find strong evidence that authorities were tampering with witness statements of survivors. Watch this video & make up your own mind
Lighthouse Reports@LHreports

Greece is trying to cover up its role in the Pylos shipwreck which caused 100s of deaths on 13 June Documents obtained by @LHreports & partners show the Greek coast guard went as far as tampering with official statements given by survivors

Proud to see our team pick up an @onewm award last night for the Reconstruction of the Melilla Massacre. As that mass deaths at Europe's borders continue, we must use every means we can to hold authorities accountable twitter.com/onewm/status/1…

“Immigration can act like Botox for the welfare state, temporarily making the math of paying for promised benefits, like Social Security & Medicare, less daunting,” ⁦@imkahloon⁩ tries to bridge economics & politics of migration newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…

When 94 people, including 35 children, drowned off the Italian coast in February, Italy said it would have launched a rescue mission had it known enough in time. @LHreports & partners uncover evidence showing Italy lied & @Frontex helped in a cover up

'If those parents weren’t killed on impact with the water, it’s probable that the last thing they did was watch their children die.' Rereading @John__Phipps brilliant story on the RNLI. Restores the sense of anger at the toxic politics responsible economist.com/1843/2022/11/0…

This is a great job in a fascinating city for immigration reporters. Met some of the team a few months ago, look forward to seeing what they'll produce

Immigration reporters! Check this job at the newest news nonprofit, @Hou_Landing, set to launch widely soon. As fellow immigration greats @SusanCarroll @elizTrovall can attest, Houston is one of the MOST important cities from which to cover immigration! apply.workable.com/houston-landin…

How many more days will the horror in Sudan be presented to international audiences as the story of evacuating Westerners?! This isn't the only (or even most important) connection to the fighting. Short thread

Algorithms are being used in welfare systems across Europe to hunt for fraud. These machines make life-changing decisions about millions of people. They claim to be accurate and fair. For the first time we got access to fully test these claims lighthousereports.com/investigation/…

MUST READ: Kheiraldin's story, told powerfully in @newlinesmag, is the story of 1000s of people jailed in Europe on charges of association with smugglers, often for doing no more than holding the tiller of a boat or handing a life aid to a passenger 1/2 newlinesmag.com/reportage/the-…

THREAD When horrifying police brutality left 23 dead and 77 people missing at Europe's border with Africa on June 24 this year, @LHReports had already been investigating the situation in Melilla for months lighthousereports.nl/investigation/…

On Jun 24 a group of people, mainly refugees from Sudan, tried to cross Africa's land border with Europe. What followed as they were caught between Spanish & Moroccan forces has been called a massacre. @LHReports & partners reconstructed a day of death & chaos

An excellent history lesson from @svaroschi on the previous round of Italy's dirty war against humanitarian charities doing sea rescue and asylum support
Antonella Napolitano@svaroschi

🧵Italy’s government is targeting NGOs saving people at sea. It is nothing new. I was there the first time around – and so were many journalists. At @open_migration we told the story of the dirty war waged against NGOs saving lives. This story starts on Easter weekend, 2017.

New: How Europe's war on migration saw nearly 10,000 asylum seekers arrested for steering boat-crossings - some jailed for 50+ years. Worth noting that this investigation was partly incubated in Lighthouse Sessions 🧵

New Investigation: The unprecedented freedoms the EU gave to refugees fleeing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine were widely celebrated. What wasn’t said at the time was how this policy was drawn up to intentionally exclude non-Europeans 🧵 lighthousereports.nl/investigation/…

Strong thread on UK immigration detention. It serves no purpose other than to punish often traumatised people, some of them trafficking victims. It does this for the satisfaction of a frankly racist constituency. Utterly toxic
Helen Bamber Foundation 🧡@HelenBamber

NEW: In a report launched today, we highlight the physical & mental damage that immigration detention inflicts on survivors of trafficking, preventing their recovery & leaving many suicidal. Most are released again, their detention serving no purpose but to cause harm. 🧵 (1/5)

As Europeans fume in airport queues, rage at service slowdown, fret at inflation, maybe read this @WashingtonPost editorial on immigration. It also describes Europe. We're SO overdue a shift in the migration conversation from threat to labour force needs washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…
