Italian companies and technicians launch missions in Libya

A delegation of Italian professionals and companies is conducting missions in Libya to support reconstruction and economic development. In Benghazi, a group of 17 representatives from ten different entities is working with the Libya Development and Reconstruction Fund, led by engineer Belgassem Haftar, to plan the recovery of the historic city center.

The Benghazi project focuses on nine historical structures, including five slated for full reconstruction and four for conservative restoration. The plan covers urban areas such as Al Sabri and the Old City, targeting residential buildings, markets, workshops, and public landmarks like the city lighthouse and town hall.

Simultaneously, a large delegation organized by the Italo-Libyan Chamber of Commerce, the Italian Embassy in Tripoli, and Unioncamere visited the Misurata Free Zone. This mission involved approximately 250 companies from Tripoli, Misurata, and Benghazi, spanning sectors such as construction, energy, agriculture, telecommunications, and healthcare. The initiative included meetings with various Libyan ministries and authorities to foster institutional and business cooperation.
