A C-130 military transport plane with two tons of food and armed forces doctors departed from Greece for Libya, which was ravaged by storm Daniel that almost wiped the city of Derna in the eastern part of the country off the map.

Athens had in previous years attempted to deepen ties with eastern Libya as Benghazi opposed the Tripoli regime.

The decision, which was taken for humanitarian as well as geopolitical reasons, was prompted by the fact that Turkey had from the very first moment sent Libya considerable material aid in military transport planes.

Greek Members injured

Members of Greece’s humanitarian aid mission in Libya were injured today (17.9.2023) in a traffic accident in the country.

After Greece, Libya was hit by extreme weather events, which left thousands dead and many more missing.

The General Staff of National Defense announces that at noon on Sunday, September 17, 2023, the bus carrying the medical personnel of the Armed Forces who had gone to Libya as part of our country’s assistance, collided with a vehicle moving in the opposite direction.
