On Monday, Egypt expressed its sincere condolences to Libya over the victims of the powerful storm "Daniel".

In a press release on Monday, the Foreign Ministry said that Egypt expressed its solidarity with Libya following the deadly storm that recently hit the country and caused flooding and torrential rains.

Egypt offered its condolences to the bereaved families of the victims, wishing the injured a speedy recovery, according to the statement.

During the past few days, Libya declared a state of emergency due to the Mediterranean storm “Daniel,” which moved with full force into the country from the central Mediterranean, after it acquired tropical characteristics and left huge losses and major damage in Greece, Turkey, and Bulgaria.

Pictures published and circulated on social media showed the effects of Storm Daniel on some streets in the city of Benghazi, while the state of emergency continues in the cities of eastern Libya.
