The Foreign Ministry stated that the Libyan Center for Mine Clearance along with the Libyan army demining teams have begun bilateral cooperation with an Italian team specialized in this issue to clear the landmines in south of Tripoli.
The ministry indicated that the Government of National Accord (GNA) is seeking diligently to cooperate with several countries, including Turkey, Italy and relevant organizations to help clear the mined areas, in order to secure the safe return of citizens to their homes.
last week, the Head of the Libyan Presidential Council Fayez Al-Sarraj requested from the Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte some assistance in removing IEDs and mines planted by Haftar’s forces in residential areas in southern Tripoli.
