Libya’s Interior Minister, Essam Abu Zriba, accompanied by the Deputy Minister, Faraj Egaim, officially inaugurated the new building for the Jebel Akhdar Coastal Security Directorate. The ceremony was attended by several security directors, Heads of security agencies and departments, as well as local dignitaries, sheikhs, and members of the directorate.
During the visit, Abu Zriba took a detailed tour of the directorate’s various departments, sections, units, and offices. He received comprehensive briefings on the operational mechanisms of these entities within the directorate, emphasising the importance of their roles in maintaining security and order in the region.
Notably, the government designated by the Libyan Parliament, under the leadership of Prime Minister Osama Hammad, has unveiled plans for the improvement and creation of new educational facilities in the Buwairat al-Hasun area, part of Misrata Municipality.
According to an official statement, the decision follows a thorough evaluation by a governmental delegation of the existing educational infrastructure, which identified significant deficiencies. The newly established school and the enhancement of facilities aim to meet modern educational standards, reflecting the government’s commitment to improving education across Libya.
This effort aligns with Prime Minister Hammad’s directives to develop remote and underserved regions, focusing on upgrading educational amenities, supporting students and teachers, and ensuring access to advanced resources nationwide.
The initiative comes in response to calls from the National Human Rights Institution of Libya for the Ministry of Education to bolster the national educational system. The institution has stressed the importance of enhancing the skills of educational personnel, improving curricula and materials, and upgrading school infrastructure to guarantee high-quality education for all students.
Particular concern has been raised about the educational system’s decline, especially in rural, remote, and crisis-affected areas, including the southern, western mountain, and eastern regions of Libya.
Since the 2011 NATO-supported uprising that led to the ousting of Moammar Gaddafi, Libya has faced significant political and economic challenges, including division between rival administrations and an economy struggling due to the ongoing conflict. This instability has affected oil production and prices, contributing to a broader humanitarian crisis within the country, impacting many lives and complicating the situation for migrants and refugees transiting through Libya.
