The Mayor of Sabratha, Hussein Al-Dawadi, met with Italian Ambassador to Libya Giuseppe Peroni on Sunday, according to a tweet by the Italian Embassy.

The two sides discussed ways of reducing the flow of migrants from and to Sabratha by strengthening the security within the city.

Earlier, Italian media reports accused the government of Paolo Gentiloni of paying millions of dollars to armed groups in Libya in return for stopping the migration from the coast of Sabratha.
