Held in the refurbished Misrata International Sports Hall, the championship is backed by more than 1,500 security and medical personnel, ensuring a smooth and safe experience. Jean-Claude Maupita, President of the Control Committee, praised Libya\u2019s effort, saying, \u201cThe organization is very good. The level of play is also impressive.\u201d<\/p>\n

For local fans, it\u2019s more than sport, it\u2019s pride. \u201cMy son and I came early to support our team,\u201d one supporter said. Libya is also setting its sights on the Arab Volleyball Championship in 2026, a further step in rebuilding its image and regional ties.<\/p>\n

As teams compete, Libya sends a clear message: it\u2019s back \u2014 stronger, safer, and ready to lead again.<\/p>\n
