The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation announces that embassies staff have facilitated the transit procedures for about 500 Libyans and their families from the Libyan community in Ukraine to Slovakia, where they were secured with all forms of support and assistance and the necessary services were provided to them, and their safety was assured to return them to the homeland.

The Ministry notes that approximately 100 Libyans in the Slovak Republic have confirmed their desire to return to Libya, and we note that a number of others have left the hotels of residence without any information, and in this regard the Ministry disclaims all responsibility for those who present themselves and their family to danger and remain in the conflict areas, despite providing all means of returning to his homeland in peace.

The Ministry reiterates its call to all Libyans present in the Republic of Ukraine to leave, and accordingly, to contact the embassy in Ukraine in order to facilitate the process of their exit to the safe border crossings in order to preserve your safety and your lives.
