Since the beginning of the crisis, the EU has provided more than €155 million in humanitarian support and mobilised EU civil protection teams and assets to alleviate the plight of civilians both in Libya and at its borders. In addition, the European Commission is making some €30 million available to support the immediate stabilisation priorities of the National Transitional Council (NTC). A further €50 million will be available for longer-term support programmes based on needs assessments to be carried out shortly.
