The Libyan government mandated by the House of Representatives, headed by Osama Hammad, announced the cancellation of the official celebrations of the anniversary of the February 17 revolution this year, in solidarity with the victims of Storm “Daniel” that hit the regions and cities of the Green Mountain.

The government said in a statement on its Facebook page that it decided to cancel the official celebrations in order to “employ all human and material capabilities in the field of reconstruction of affected cities and areas, through the Derna Reconstruction Fund and the affected cities and areas, and to preserve public money.”

The government also attributed the reason for the cancellation to solidarity with the people of the city of Zliten, which is currently witnessing a rise in the groundwater level.

In a related context, Osama Hammad issued a decision to declare Saturday and Sunday, February 17 and 18, official holidays on the occasion of the anniversary of the February 17th revolution.

On the other hand, the interim government of national unity headed by Abdul Hamid Dabaiba is making preparations in the capital Tripoli to commemorate the anniversary of the February revolution, as the Martyrs’ Square, which will be completely closed on Thursday evening, has been prepared for the occasion.
