Hundreds of illegal Muslim asylum seekers rioted Friday night and set ablaze a number of buildings at an Australian detention facility on Nauru where they were being held, following the government’s recent illegal alien invasion crackdown. Reports say most of the buildings of the facility including the accommodation blocks, medical centre, dining hall and offices were destroyed in the fires.
Press TV On Friday, Australia’s Prime Minister Kevin Rudd signed an agreement with his Papua New Guinea counterpart, Peter O’Neill, to send all asylum-seekers arriving by boat to the poverty-stricken island nation. ”From now on, any asylum seeker who arrives in Australia by boat will have no chance of being settled in Australia as refugee,” said Rudd.
He added that anyone assessed to be a refugee would be permanently settled in Papua New Guinea and those whose applications are not successful would be sent back home or to third countries. After the announcement, the Coalition for Asylum Seekers called the measure shocking, and said Canberra has decided to shirk from its responsibilities assigned under the United Nations Refugees Convention.
