OHCHR | Australia: UN experts urge immediate medical attention to migrants in its offshore facilities: GENEVA (18 June 2019) – UN human rights experts* urged Australia to immediately provide appropriate health care to more than 800 asylum seekers and other migrants who have been held in the country’s offshore facilities for the past five years without durable solutions.
The independent experts called on the Australian Government to transfer those identified as requiring urgent medical attention to Australia.
The UN experts are deeply concerned that the integrity of these individuals, including their mental health, has been deteriorating with fatal consequences. There have been multiple reports of self-harm and suicide attempts, with an increase since 19 May 2019 after the Australian federal elections.
