Helicopters, water cannons, and tear gas were used to disperse the crowd, most of them Sudanese civil war refugees and West Africans; 294 people were arrested. read more

The new Entry/Exit System (EES), together with the European Travel Authorisation System (ETIAS), is part of a broader push to technically integrate databases across migration and public security. Europe is quietly building the most extensive digital border surveillance infrastructure in its history – one that people can neither see nor challenge. Whereas the idea behind EES is to automate entry and exit records through biometric data collection, ETIAS aims to pre-screen who is or is not fit to enter the European Union based on criteria assessed by a score: risk to public health, risk to security, and risk of illegal immigration. read more

Five years after the Islamist Taliban seized power in Afghanistan, the German government is their closest partner for co-operation in the EU. Germany’s main goal: increasing deportations regardless of human rights risks. More than 200 Afghan men have been returned to Kabul from Germany in the last twelve months. While the deportations were initially limited to criminals, this criterion has been lifted. read more

Germany is seeking to resume transfers of people on the move to Italy and Greece.

The case of a Somali woman, whose Dublin transfer to Italy is now the subject of a dispute, highlights a fundamental problem: Germany wants to send people back to Italy, but Italy has largely blocked their return since 2022, and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is now even demanding ‘compensation’ for refugees rescued in the Mediterranean by NGOs, including some German organisations. read more

Two months after the GEAS reform came into force, Lower Saxony has still not implemented key improvements for refugee children and particularly vulnerable asylum-seekers. The fact that the state government has still not implemented the few improvements intended for children and particularly vulnerable asylum-seekers, of all things, is evidence of misplaced priorities. read more

The dispute between Italy and Spain has escalated following the Ceuta crisis: Italian PM Meloni was the only EU head of government to suspend Schengen rules toward Spain, prompting Spain to introduce its own border checks on travellers arriving from Italy starting Saturday.

More than 1,300 unaccompanied minors have now been registered in Ceuta. Spanish law protects them from immediate deportation.

The Greek government presented a marked drop in irregular boat arrivals in 2026 (roughly 15,500 versus around 23,000 in the same period last year) as a policy success. Almost simultaneously, a further 234 people reached the island of Gavdos, most from Libya, showing that individual routes remain active even as overall numbers fall. read more
