Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi will welcome 20 Egyptians who were freed after being held hostage by Libyan militias, Al-Ahram Arabic news website reported on Tuesday. El-Sisi has ordered a plane be sent to bring the former hostages back to Egypt on Tuesday. The twenty Egyptians were abducted from the city of Al-Jufrah, 750km from Libya's capital Tripoli, earlier this month. They come from the same village, Dakuff, in the governorate of Minya in Upper Egypt. Libya has become deeply fractured since the fall of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. Since the summer of 2014 it has had two rival governments and parliaments, operating from the capital Tripoli and from the east. Both are backed by loose alliances of armed brigades of rebels who once fought Gaddafi. For decades, Libya has been a major destination for Egyptian migrant workers due to its once booming oil economy, geographical proximity and open borders. Last year ISIS militants beheaded 20 Egyptian Christians and one Ethiopian Christian near the Libyan city of Sirte, in a video circulated by the group's propagandists. The Egyptian foreign ministry has repeatedly called on all expats still living in Libya to return home. http://english.ahram.org.eg/News/181404.aspx
