Today, on the first day of the year, Hala was born at Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza City, a moment of hope amid hardship.

“We are very happy to have this new baby, I hope for her to have a life of peace,” her grandmother said.

Through rehabilitation of the maternity ward and emergency employment for medical staff, UNDP, with support from PAMA and the Government of Norway, is helping ensure safe births under extremely challenging conditions.

In response to the Libyan dinar's devaluation and low interest loans to banks, REACH has looked at the past 6 months of key commodity prices and an in-depth analysis of the cash supply chain - from the printing of LYD to household access to liquidity https://t.co/ruuAEEozwq

Sudan eliminated subsidies on fuel and doubled the price of gasoline & diesel.

This decision will raise price of gasoline from 150 Sudanese pounds per liter to 290, while diesel will cost 285 pounds from 125.

This will stimulate the fuel smuggling market from #Libya to #Sudan

When loans were extended by the CBL in Jan, they were supposed to be a one-off, just to tide the commrcl banks over until banking reunification.

But the national budget debate has delayed things.

Do note Kabir’s willingness to help out, as banking reunification remains elusive.

What is going on with the Libyan economy?

We've starting to see the effects of the devaluation of the dinar by the unified Central Bank who introduced a new exchange rate in January this year.

A key moment w/in next few days may come in the form of an official, legislatively approved adoption of a combined #budget covering all of Libya’s civil servants, incldng those hired in the east post-autumn 2014.

This may herald the absorption by Tripoli of Barqa’s LYD 40b debt.

Good news fr Libya recently: Tobruk creating seafront & Derna opening its harbour. I wish Libyan analysts explore other staterelated issues (transport, infrastructure) than just political meddling

Foreigners&investors read your stuff and you should talk more than basic politics
