The Libyan Navy participated in the Phoenix Express 2024 exercise, held in Tunisia alongside Algeria, Morocco, Italy, and Turkey.

The multinational exercise focused on enhancing maritime cooperation to combat arms trafficking, drug smuggling, and illegal migration.

The Libyan Navy's Ibn Ouf ship joined the drills after departing from Halq Al Wadi port. Exercises included defence formations against hostile aircraft and submarines, countering terrorist boats, refueling manoeuvres, search and rescue operations, interrogating suspicious vessels, and coordinating with maritime operations centres.

Special forces from the Libyan Navy also trained on shipboarding and inspection techniques during the exercise.
