Libya has witnessed an increase in illegal immigration, accompanied by the deterioration of the security situation since 2011, following the fall of Muammar Gaddafi's regime and the intensification of the conflict between the conflicting parties. In light of the escalating rate of illegal immigration through Libya, this article aims to shed light on the humanitarian security situation of illegal migrants in Libya in the midst of the country's internal crisis.
On the other hand, the study reveals violations against illegal migrants in Libya by the Libyan Coast Guard, human trafficking gangs and within the detention centres managed by the Agency for Combating Illegal Immigration. As a result, the humanitarian situation of illegal migrants in Libya does not meet international human rights standards.
Key words: Illegal immigration, Libya, Human security, Violations, Human rights.
