  • According to the United Nations, human smuggling is defined as “the procurement, in order to obtain, directly or indirectly, a financial or other material benefit, of the illegal entry of a person into a State Party of which the person is not a national or a permanent resident.” Civil unrest in the Middle East in the 21st century and changing European immigration policies have been seen numbers of refugees fleeing their home countries. Migrants rely on human smugglers to assist them in illegal border crossings to Europe. With the help of human smugglers, refugees use different routes to the EU due to varying immigration policies. In between January and September 2015, the most common was the Eastern Mediterranean. Additionally, 2015 saw a major increase in the number of migrants making the Eastern Mediterranean crossing; “There were nearly eight times more detections via the Eastern Mediterranean route in the first nine months of 2015 (401,000) than during the whole of 2014 (51,000).” The European Migration Network reports that the secondary movements of refugees upon arrival in Europe are heavily influenced by human smugglers. According to the UN, human smuggling is a criminal offense. However, the number of human traffickers in Turkey increased from 4,641 in 2017 to 6,278 in 2018. Because human smuggling is illegal, little is definitely known about the practice. What is known comes from interviews refugees or smugglers have given to journalists. (en)
