Libya's Benghazi Launches Platform to Report E-Payment Abuse
The Benghazi Security Directorate has announced strict measures targeting private healthcare institutions that fail to implement electronic payment systems. This decision follows Prime Ministerial Decree No. (135) of 2025, which authorizes the use of the Public Order Enforcement Unit to execute government decisions. In line with the directive, Major General Salah Houidi—Director of Greater Benghazi Security and Head of the Public Order Enforcement Unit—held a high-level meeting with directors of private hospitals and medical laboratories in Benghazi. According to the Directorate's statement, the meeting focused on enforcing the adoption of electronic payment methods in all private health institutions. This step is part of a broader national digital transformation strategy aimed at reducing cash transactions, easing financial procedures for citizens, enhancing transparency, and improving service quality. General Houidi emphasized that activating e-payment systems is crucial for maintaining an organized and secure healthcare environment. He also confirmed that the Public Order Enforcement Unit will strictly monitor implementation and hold violators accountable without leniency. The statement further revealed the launch of a dedicated online platform for citizens to report violations related to e-payment compliance in the healthcare sector, giving the public a direct role in overseeing the rollout of this national initiative. Directors of private hospitals and laboratories who attended the meeting expressed their full support for the Prime Minister's decision and pledged to work in full coordination with the Public Order Enforcement Unit. General Houidi concluded by affirming that the Greater Benghazi Security Directorate will continue to oversee the commitment of healthcare institutions to the e-payment directive and will provide solutions to overcome any obstacles faced during the transition.

Libya to Enforce ID Registration for All Foreign Nationals
Libya's Security and Development authorities have agreed to launch a comprehensive nationwide security and data registration campaign, following a final coordination meeting held at the office of Benghazi's Security Director, Major General Salah Houidi. The meeting brought together top officials including Dr. Jibril Al-Badri, Head of the National Development Agency, and Major General Moneim Lamhashhash, Head of the Municipal Guard, as part of broader efforts to enhance coordination between security and development bodies across Libya. The initiative will establish five main operational branches, covering Greater Benghazi, the Central Region, Southeast, Southwest, and the Eastern Region. These branches will serve as logistical and administrative centers for implementing the data collection campaign. Officials confirmed that the National Development Agency will provide full logistical support, including medical supplies and modern IT equipment, to facilitate efficient field operations and improve on-the-ground performance. The meeting comes as Prime Minister Abdel-Hamid Dbaiba approved the rollout of a new national security registration card, now a mandatory requirement for Arab and foreign nationals to open bank accounts in the country. The head of the committee emphasized that all expatriates must obtain this registration card, warning that those who fail to comply will face strict legal measures, including arrest, deportation, and permanent expulsion. Authorities view this campaign as a strategic step toward tightening immigration controls, improving internal security, and formalizing the legal presence of non-Libyans in the country.
