Unfortunately, no tangible progress has been made by the Egyptian government on these issues. On the contrary, the human rights crisis has deepened. Authorities have adopted a security approach focused on militarization and the criminalization of migrants and those supporting them, thereby worsening the situation rather than addressing it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><b>Documented ongoing violations include:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>\u00a0policies against people on the move rights and not complaing with international standards:\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite prior recommendations, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the legislative amendments to the laws came with further criminalization of migrants, such as the amendments to Law 82 of 2016, and the militarization of borders, such as the amendments to Presidential Decree 444 of 2014,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Refugees now face risks both at borders seeking asylum and within Egypt while <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">allowing perpetrators of crimes against them to escape punishment<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> , where they are denied basic protections and exposed to serious abuses.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Deprivation of the right to seek asylum<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A deficient asylum registration system for years have restricted thousands from applying for asylum, especially outside Cairo. Long delays that might extended to one year and lack of access expose individuals to exploitation, detention, and denial of basic services.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Enforced disappearances<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The authorities have not investigated complaints by refugees about the enforced disappearance of themselves or their relatives. We have documented hundreds of cases of arrest by police and border guards over the past years, after which people were forcibly disappeared, some of whom were later found guilty in cases without evidence, while the authorities have not clarified the fate of others, such as the passengers of the September 14, 2014 boat, whose families are still searching for them.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Torture<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Refugees are subjected to arrest, torture, and detention in military facilities without legal recourse. Testimonies document torture during enforced disappearance, and despite reports to the Public Prosecution, investigations remain insufficient.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Arbitrary detention in inhumane conditions, including women and unaccompanied minors<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Egyptian government has arrested thousands of people of various nationalities while attempting to enter or exit Egypt irregularly in search of safe haven. In addition to what we have documented in our investigations and published reports about a nationwide security campaign to arrest people who were forced by the legal system to not have valid residency permits, detainees are subjected to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment. We have documented the detention of children, women and sick people without any medical care in extremely poor detention facilities, before being forcibly deported to their countries without the opportunity to apply for asylum or to allow UNHCR to visit detention facilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Violence against migrants at border points<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Intensified militarization has led to increased violence against migrants at Egypt\u2019s borders, where border guards frequently resort to extreme force, including shootings and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">direct assault &#8211; as we recently documented on the southern border.\u00a0 Air strikes on civilian vehicles, as documented on the western border with Libya. Meanwhile, the authorities have militarized those areas to prevent <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">media, humanitarian organizations, and independent observers from documenting conditions or providing critical support<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Forced deportation of refugees and asylum seekers<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People from high-risk regions, including Sudan, Syria and Eritrea<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> often including children, women and sick people, are deported to places where there is a life threatens and in violation of international law. For a year and a half, en masse Sudanese <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">deported without adequate assessment, violating their right to protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Financial exploitation of displaced persons<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People face severe economic exploitation, often paying thousands of euros to companies linked to Egyptian authorities to cross to Egypt (Platenians &amp; Syrians). People whome denied regular entry have been forced into costly irregular routes, with authorities later imposing a legalization fee of up to a thousand dollars for temporary residency. This process, misleadingly referred to as an \u201cAsylum Regulation Law,\u201d obscures these exploitative practices before the international community.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Criminalization of refugees and asylum seekers based on gender identity, belief, or irregular status<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Egyptian authorities persecute LGBTQ+ refugees and those with certain beliefs, subjecting them to detention and deportation. Proposed new law could further endanger these populations<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Denial of access to the Justice\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barriers prevent refugees from accessing legal representation or pursuing justice for rights violations, while authorities offer minimal recognition of their protection needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Failure to carry out search and rescue operations and blocking civil organizations from working in border areas<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Egyptian law does not mandate search and rescue operations for refugees at borders, leading to numerous deaths, including entire families along the southern border as documented. Investigations into these cases have been superficial and closed, while authorities prevent rescue organizations from operating in border areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Criminalization of defenders of the rights of people on the move:<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Activists and defenders of migrant rights are often criminalized <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">facing security prosecutions, informal investigations, the closure of their offices, and threats of forced deportation, as seen in case of Osman Hussein, who was deported to Sudan among the , which is witnessing the largest humanitarian crisis in the world, and he is still at risk. Meanwhile, dozens of community schools have been closed. Egyptian laws already criminalize providing any kind of support to people on the move, while the recent asylum law proposal comes to tighten penalties<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><b>Our urgent recommendations to the Egyptian authorities are:<\/b><\/p>\n<ol dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Suspend Passage of the Asylum Law<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This draft centralizes registration without oversight, contravening international standards.
