The UN says it was shocked and alarmed by the discovery of at least 65 migrants’ bodies in a mass grave in Libya.

It’s believed that they died in the process of being smuggled through the desert.

In Libya there are around three quarters of a million refugees and migrants in Libya.

Many are day labourers and depend on work to feed themselves and provide for their families back home, but jobs are scarce during the holy month of Ramadan.
