Tripoli, June 11, 2025 (LANA) – The European Union Delegation and the diplomatic missions of EU Member States to Libya announced their support for the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) in condemning the recent violations of the ceasefire during the Eid holiday.

In a joint statement issued on Wednesday, the Mission and Member States said that at this critical juncture for Libya and its people, it is imperative that all parties respect their commitments to the ceasefire and ensure the protection of civilians and civilian infrastructure from further harm.

The statement stressed that the renewed violence highlights the urgent need to revive a credible and inclusive political process facilitated by UNSMIL, aimed at resolving divisions and restoring legitimacy to national institutions through inclusive and credible national elections.
