TRIPOLI, Jan. 18 (Xinhua) -- The Committee of Intelligence and Security Services (CISSA) of the African Union (AU) has announced the opening of its office in the Libyan capital Tripoli.

The opening ceremony, held on Friday, was attended by CISSA Executive Secretary Jackson Victor Hamata, and Libyan intelligence chief Hussein Al-Ayeb, as Libya assumed the presidency of CISSA for the year 2025.

"This inauguration of CISSA office in Libya enhances Libya's leadership in the field of intelligence work at the regional level," Al-Ayeb said, stressing the need to "intensify coordination between African intelligence agencies against terrorism, organized crime and other security issues."

Meanwhile, Hamata praised Libya for enhancing African security and stability, and for hosting the CISSA, which represents a strong boost to joint intelligence work among its members.

On Thursday, Hamata met with President of the Libyan Presidency Council Mohamed al-Menfi on security and political situations in Libya and Africa, and on Libya's role against terrorism, organized crime, and illegal immigration.

CISSA, established in 2004 in Nigeria's Abuja, aims to assist the AU and all its institutions to address the need to share information on security threats confronting Africa. Enditem
