Philea expresses solidarity with the victims of the floods in Libya

We were all deeply saddened by the devastating floods that struck Derna and the surrounding areas in Libya, resulting in profound loss of life and wholesale destruction. Our hearts go out to those affected and to those currently facing urgent needs such as food, shelter, access to clean water, medical care, and healthcare services.

We are committed to sharing information about the responses undertaken by Philea members and associates as we become aware of them.
