They stressed that an immediate cessation of hostilities would allow the municipalities and local councils to cater to the urgent needs of the population, particularly the vulnerable segment such as the wounded and the displaced.
They decided to establish working groups to follow up on their efforts to improve the lives of the Libyans who have suffered so much and have lost loved ones and property, and were forced to flee their homes.
In line with the positive environment that prevailed at the meeting, the UN facilitated an agreement between the municipalities of Misrata and Tawergha on the following points:
1. Establishment of a committee from the local council of Tawergha and whoever they call upon to help in visiting the prisons in the City of Misrata and to receive assurances about their conditions, and to review with the responsible authorities the charges against them and their legal status.
2. The right of the people of Tawergha to return to their land through the establishment of a committee to discuss the mechanism to achieve that on the ground and to remove all obstacles and prepare all the appropriate conditions.
There was agreement that UNSMIL will follow up this process in cooperation with the two sides.
The Mission expresses sincere gratitude to the governments of Switzerland and Italy for their continuous support to the dialogue to bring peace to Libya.
