Tripoli, 31.05.2016(Lana) Navy forces spokesman, Col Ayub Qasim
attributed the increasing number of immigrants flowing into Europe to
scarcity of resources with the Libyan Coast Guard.
in a statement to Italian Aki news agency, Qassem said Coast
Guard forces could not run patrols for long distances due to the use
of small boats with limited capacity.
He also viewed failure of EU countries to put pressure on illegal
immigration source countries, and lack of support to the Libyan Navy
and agencies fighting illegal immigration led to increased immigrant
waves into Italian and European coast.
