Around 122,000 Libyans fleeing the violence shaking their country have arrived in Egypt to date, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said.
Assistant Foreign Minister Mohamed Abel Hakam said 122,058 Libyans have arrived in Egypt via the Salloum border crossing since the breakout of the unrest in February.
In a statement released Sunday, Abdel Hakam said additional Libyans are expected to arrive.
He added that Egypt will continue its efforts to help Egyptians living in Libya to return. He said that Egyptians are continuing to flock to the Libyan-Tunisian border.
International reports said more than 200,000 Egyptians have returned since the end of February. Most come from Upper Egypt.
