EU-Libya border security cooperation faces scrutiny over Haftar-linked incidents

European border agency Frontex has documented anomalous and violent incidents involving migrant routes in the central Mediterranean, raising concerns over the EU's deepening engagement with Khalifa Haftar's forces in Libya. The reports highlight the tension between EU migration control objectives and the risks of legitimizing actors involved in regional power struggles. It remains unclear how these findings will impact future EU-Libya migration policy frameworks.
