“As part of the military training, assistance, and advice agreement, we continue to provide training to the Libyan Armed Forces. Our personnel are providing ‘Basic Counter-Terrorism Training’ to the Libyan soldiers in the Homs Joint Maritime Training Center Command,” Turkey’s Defense Ministry tweeted on Tuesday.

In November 2019, Turkey stated that it signed an agreement with Libya's internationally recognized government on maritime boundaries in the Mediterranean Sea, in addition to a deal on security and military cooperation. (ILKHA)
