BENGHAZI-Libya, Dec 27 (KUNA) -- The second Kuwaiti oil tanker arrived here
Tuesday carrying more than 20,000 tons of fuel in aid to Libyan people under

Al-Sabah.
The tanker was received by members of Libya's National Transitional Council

"Kuwait's fuel aid is a sign of solidarity with the brotherly people of
Libya who suffer from fuel shortage," Al-Adwani told reporters on the delivery

The NTC members expressed gratitude for HH the Amir, government and people
of Kuwait for their relief efforts and the historic stances at international

Ambassador Al-Adwani and Consul Al-Mteiri.
