New Libyan election discussions will take place in Morocco

 


The Libyan steering committee will convene in Morocco to organise the elections that are expected to end the political impasse that has split the oil-rich and war-torn nation.

According to Abdullah Belhaq, a spokesman for the Libyan House of Representatives, the news was published by the Italian news agency Nova.

Following their agreement on methods to advance towards elections, he said that the rivals' positions are convergent.

Since an election that was supposed to take place in December 2021 was called off because to disagreements about the eligibility of the main candidates, a political process to end the more than ten-year war in Libya has come to a standstill.

  On Sunday, it was reported that the Free Patriotic Movement, the Lebanese Forces, and the Lebanese Phalanges Party, the three main Christian parties in the Lebanese parliament, were nearing agreement on a presidential candidate. The 57-year-old former finance minister Jihad Azour is one of the likely candidates mentioned for the position. The International Monetary Fund's Middle East and Central Asia Department is now led by Azour. On the eve of his travel to Rome and Paris, Maronite Patriarch Bechara Al-Rahi may have alluded to the consensus in his sermon on Sunday.

"We thank God for what we hear about some consensus among parliamentary blocs regarding the future president," he continued, "so that he does not pose a challenge to anyone, and at the same time possesses a personality that responds to Lebanon's needs today and inspi...

  Excavations at the Necropolis of Meir have revealed fascinating insights into the lives and practices of early Christian monks in Middle Egypt . Located in the heart of the ancient Egyptian city of Meir, the necropolis has been the subject of extensive archaeological research for many years. However, recent discoveries have shed new light on the history of the site, particularly during the Byzantine period. The excavation team uncovered evidence of a large structure consisting of Christian monks' cells, which are believed to date back to the Byzantine era. This finding suggests that the necropolis was a place of religious significance and was likely used as a monastic community by early Christian monks. Further excavations revealed that the structure was built on top of Late Period burials. This indicates that the site had been in use for centuries before the arrival of the Christian monks. The discovery of the Late Period burials also sheds light on the funerary practices of the...

  According to his attorney, prominent Tunisian Islamist leader Rached Ghannouchi was taken into custody on Monday following a police search. The action against the 81-year-old former speaker of the house comes as social unrest and economic woes in Tunisia, the country that gave birth to the pro-democracy Arab Spring movement more than 10 years ago, are on the rise. Kais Saied, the president of Tunisia, is most frequently criticised by Ghannouchi, the leader of the Ennahdha party. Early on Tuesday, Tunisian police conducted a raid on the main offices of the Islamist Ennahda party and began evacuating everyone inside, according to party insiders who spoke to Reuters. Riadh Chaibi, a party official, said that the police escorted everyone outside and started searching the headquarters after displaying a court order. Following a police search, Ennahdha tweeted that Ghannouchi had been "taken from his home," adding that it "condemns this very dangerous development." The ...
