As many as 49 bids by people to infiltrate into Libya from Egypt have been foiled by security bodies in Salloum of Matrouh, northwest of Cairo.

Twenty-eight would-be infiltrators are locals from the governorates of Menya, Alexandria, Fayyoum, Beni Suef, Beheira, Daqahliya, Ismailia, North Sinai.

The rest are foreigners from Ethiopia, Iraq, Eritrea, Syria and Sudan.

All of them have been referred to the prosecution.
