<p>The UK Government consistently urges all states to uphold international law and
international human rights standards and to avoid any action that may endanger human
life. We continue to monitor the abuse of migrants and refugees in Libya and the inhumane
conditions in detention centres. The UK supported the mandate for the Independent
Fact-Finding Mission on Libya to asses human rights abuses, including violations in
detention centres. We continue to urge the interim Government of National Unity to
take steps to end the exploitation and abuse of migrants and to implement a better
functioning system that respects human rights. We support the UN's call for detention
centres across Libya to be closed, and call on all parties to engage with the UN and
the humanitarian community so that all migrants and refugees can be evacuated safely
in accordance with international human rights law.</p>
