Ras Lanuf Takeover: Libya’s National Oil Corporation has fully regained control of the Ras Lanuf refinery and petrochemical complex after ending a decade-long dispute with a UAE partner, transferring shares to NOC and restoring full Libyan management of the country’s biggest processing hub. Migration Pressure: In the Mediterranean, authorities report 123 more rescues off Crete as crossings surge, while eastern Libya says it recovered bodies of migrants and deported 120 held by traffickers south of Benghazi. Cash Crackdown: Libya’s Central Bank is pushing harder against unofficial foreign-exchange shops and online groups, warning of closures and prosecutions as the dinar slides again. Security & Training: Sirte hosted joint drills where Libyan forces from rival camps trained alongside US and international partners—an effort tied to building a more unified security posture. Regional Diplomacy: UN and African partners continue pressing for action against smuggling networks, as Libya remains a key transit corridor.
