Eastern Libyan authorities deported 155 migrants through the Imsaed border crossing as part of a renewed campaign to tighten border controls and curb illegal migration. The operation was conducted in two phases: Egyptian nationals were repatriated directly, while migrants from Eritrea, Somalia, Bangladesh and Guinea were processed at Qanfouda shelter before return. Officials say these measures aim to dismantle smuggling networks and reinforce oversight along Libya’s key land borders.
