2 mass graves with bodies of nearly 50 migrants found in southeastern Libya

Libya authorities uncovered nearly 50 bodies this week from two mass graves in the country’s southeastern desert in the latest tragedy involving people seeking to reach Europe through the chaos-stricken North African country. Officials said one grave was found Friday in a farm in the southeastern city of Kufra and at least 19 bodies were unearthed. Another mass grave was found after raiding a human trafficking center in the city. The grave had at least 30 bodies with survivors saying there were nearly 70 buried there, authorities said Sunday.
