The Minister of the Interior of the National Unity Government, Imed Trabelsi, stated that Libya is only a transit country and not the destination for migrants. They are not satisfied with the repercussions of this file on our country, just like the targeted countries.
He added that 270 migrants of different nationalities were deported from Somalia, Sudan, Nigeria and Bangladesh, and there will be other flights to deport the migrants successively.
He said: “I value the efforts of the anti-immigration agency in all its branches, and we do not forget the role of the security services in the eastern, southern and central regions in combating this toxic phenomenon. Libya paid a large tax as a result of the issue of sheltering migrants. We call on everyone not to choose the path of death and to remain in their countries.”
He stated that our borders with Tunisia will be equipped, for the first time, with surveillance cameras and forces will be deployed along the borders.
He concluded by saying: “It requires intensified efforts between state institutions and citizens because of its security, health, economic and social repercussions.”
