Our Qurbani are being distributed throughout Gaza!

Your sacrifices are our bequest, which we have fulfilled to the end. Through a fully documented and transparent process: from the sacrificial process for Eid al-Adha, through the meat preparation processes, through the long wait, finally the trucks with the sacrificial meat cans arrived in the parts of Gaza where the distribution took place.

May Allah accept this common good deed 🤲 and grant them peace and freedom as soon as possible!
Next Eid, inshaAllah, may we distribute in Gaza in peace!

If you are satisfied with the fulfilment of our difficult but valuable humanitarian projects, which we have been implementing throughout Macedonia and around the world for 15 years, join us with your donations.
Aid programs in Gaza are:
Food, 5 euros per meal.
Hygiene, 40 euros per package.

Working visit of MEP Tineke Strik and the Legis team https://legis.mk/working-visit-of-mep-tineke-strik-and-the-legis-team/ Fri, 05 Apr 2024 22:46:52 +0000 https://legis.mk/?p=8631  

Yesterday (03.04.2024), our team represented by Mersiha Smailovikj and Jasmina Golubovska held a
working meeting with Tineke Strik, Member of the European Parliament (Group of the Greens/European
Free Alliance) and her team, Aryaan Annabelle Bovenberg and Ruben Robbensom.
At the meeting, the main topic of discussion was migration and humanitarian refugee crisis on the
Southern and Northern border of North Macedonia. We presented the work of our field teams situated
within the transit-border reception centers Vinojug- Gevgelija and Tabanovce- Kumanovo and access to
human rights protection for refugees and people on the move.
Having in mind MEP Strik extensive work in the area of migration, we exchanged information and ideas
on improvement of the reception of people in migration and refugees in the transit- border centers as
well as issues such as push-backs, human rights violations. We presented our reports based on the field
team monitoring and documentation of migration since the beginning of the crisis in 2015.
We also focused on the past 2 months of violent push-backs on the Northern border with Serbia and
Southern border with Greece and the role of Frontex at this specific border.
As an organization advocating for the rights of migrants and refugees, we are pleased with the meeting
with MEP Strik and look forward to our cooperation in future.

The Croatian police coordinated for the migrants through a secret WhatsApp group https://legis.mk/%d1%85%d1%80%d0%b2%d0%b0%d1%82%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b0%d1%82%d0%b0-%d0%bf%d0%be%d0%bb%d0%b8%d1%86%d0%b8%d1%98%d0%b0-%d0%bf%d1%80%d0%b5%d0%ba%d1%83-%d1%82%d0%b0%d1%98%d0%bd%d0%b0-%d0%b2%d0%b0%d1%86%d0%b0/ Thu, 04 Apr 2024 11:05:09 +0000 https://legis.mk/%d1%85%d1%80%d0%b2%d0%b0%d1%82%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b0%d1%82%d0%b0-%d0%bf%d0%be%d0%bb%d0%b8%d1%86%d0%b8%d1%98%d0%b0-%d0%bf%d1%80%d0%b5%d0%ba%d1%83-%d1%82%d0%b0%d1%98%d0%bd%d0%b0-%d0%b2%d0%b0%d1%86%d0%b0/ “Croatia has always denied violent and illegal operations by its own police force to force asylum seekers to leave,” Lighthouse Reports points out.

Croatian police and officials are sharing sensitive information about migrants trying to enter the country through a WhatsApp group, an independent media outlet reported. Lighthouse Reports said it obtained 60 leaked screenshots and was able to identify 33 participants in an encrypted chat group used between August 2019 and February 2020.

“Croatia has always denied any knowledge of violent and illegal operations by its own police to force asylum seekers to leave the EU. We can now reveal that senior Croatian officials were part of a secret WhatsApp group where such activities were shared and encouraged,” Lighthouse Reports points out.

From there they reported that the group was used to exchange information about the arrests in Western Croatia of over 1,300 people, mainly of Afghan, Pakistani and Syrian nationality.

The news alleges that the WhatsApp group, called Corridor II-West, was used by the police to locate and apprehend irregular migrants. Photos of individuals with clearly visible faces were often shared.

“In certain cases, disturbing photos of individuals and sometimes of people forced to lie face down on the ground or of people who were apparently forced to take off their shoes while armed Croatian policemen stood over them were shared,” the news said.

The group was also used to exchange information for journalists visiting the border area.

Croatian officials neither confirm nor deny the existence of the WhatsApp group.

“We cannot know if these messages are authentic. Corridor II-West is not a covert operation. It is an action against migrant smugglers, intensively in the past five years,” stated the Minister of the Interior, Davor Božinović.

He denies allegations of mistreatment of migrants by the police.

The Ministry emphasized in a statement that the group formed on VatsApp does not represent a specific illegal situation.

EU member Croatia joined the visa-free Schengen zone this year and has repeatedly faced accusations of pushing back migrants at its borders.
