00:00At least six migrant bodies have been recovered after washing a shore near the Libyan city of Misrata on Thursday.
00:23Libya has remained a key transit point for migrants attempting to reach Europe
00:27since the 2011 NATO-backed uprising that toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi.
00:34The country's instability, along with its oil-driven economy,
00:38continues to draw migrants despite the dangers of desert and Mediterranean crossings.
00:43In February, bodies of migrants were also discovered in Libya's southeast,
00:48underscoring the ongoing risks faced by those fleeing poverty and conflict.
00:57And now, the border with the help of the U.S.
01:07is outside the border.
01:09As was sown, I would say,
01:13I could say that there are no cities in nearby space,
01:18that I could say that there are no cities in the south.
