Amnesty condemns Italy's asylum deal with Albania for human rights abuses
Italy's migration deal with Albania has drawn criticism from Amnesty International for human rights violations. The agreement, which fast-tracks deportations of migrants from 'safe' countries, has led to the establishment of detention centers in Albania. Reports indicate severe conditions, including incidents of self-harm among detainees. Amnesty warns that this model undermines asylum rights and calls for a reevaluation of such practices in the EU.
