The number of the Libyans visiting and residing in Tunisia does not exceed one hundred thousand people, the Libyan Consulate in Tunisia has confirmed.

Consul, Abdurazzak Abu Sanina, said that the rumors about the existence of a million Libyan citizens in Tunisia are completely untrue. He pointed out that there is only one flight a week between Labreq airport in Libya and Carthage airport in Tunisia, while the entrance via land borders amount to a thousand people a day, who enter for healthcare purposes as the records show.
