Egypt's Foreign Ministry managed to release 35 Egyptians who were detained in Tripoli over charges of beggary and illegal immigration, said Assistant Foreign Minister for Consular Affairs Hisham el Naqib.

This came in line with directives issued by Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry to follow up conditions of Egyptians abroad under any circumstances, he added.

Naqib, meanwhile, urged Egyptians living in Libya to exercise extreme caution and steer away from tension and clashes areas.
