Libya Increases Security at Borders with Tunisia & Algeria

On Thursday, Libya’s Presidential Council Deputies, Abdullah Al-Lafi and Musa Al-Koni, hosted a high-level security meeting aimed at fortifying the nation’s borders with Tunisia and Algeria.

The meeting was also attended by key figures such as Prime Minister Abdel-Hamid Dbaiba, the Chief of the Libyan Army’s General Staff, the Head of General Intelligence, and the Head of Internal Security.

They discussed ways of reinforcing the security and military posture along the critical border regions, a step seen as vital to the nation’s stability and regional relations.

Libya, emerging from a decade of conflict and political instability following the 2011 uprising that toppled Muammar Gaddafi, faces significant challenges in securing its vast and porous borders.

These borders have been vulnerable to cross-border smuggling, human trafficking, and the movement of armed groups, exacerbating the security situation within the country and impacting neighbouring states. The meeting signifies a concerted effort by the Libyan government to address these longstanding security issues.

During this strategic meeting, specific directives were given to the military’s Border Guards and the Ministry of the Interior to intensify efforts at the western border crossings. This directive includes enhancing surveillance, increasing military presence, and implementing more rigorous border controls. This is aimed at curtailing illegal cross-border activities, and ensuring the efficient management of legitimate border crossings, which are crucial for trade and bilateral relations.

The initiative also underscores the importance of continued vigilance and security monitoring in the western region, and at key border points. The collaboration between various security bodies is set to focus on developing comprehensive security plans, which contribute to the nation’s sovereignty and stability. These plans are expected to encompass a range of measures, from technological upgrades, such as enhanced surveillance systems, to increased personnel training and better coordination among different security agencies.
