UPDATE 1-Aid ship reaches Libya, food trucks on way - WFP

* Ship to be unloaded in Benghazi

* Trucks bringing in date bars

(Updates with further WFP comment)

LONDON, March 9 (Reuters) - A ship carrying wheat flour arrived in the rebel-held Libyan port of Benghazi on Wednesday and trucks with more aid are due to reach the terminal in coming days, the World Food Programme (WFP) said. Earlier this month the United Nations agency said food stocks in Libya were depleted and supply chains disrupted due to fighting between government and rebel forces in the country.

"The vessel is being discharged in Benghazi and it is carrying 1,182 metric tonnes of wheat flour," WFP spokeswoman Caroline Hurford said on Wednesday.

That equates to enough wheat to make about 2.5 million loaves of bread and the WFP said it could feed nearly 95,000 people for a month.

The ship was turned back from the port last week due to security concerns, the WFP said.

Hurford said five trucks carrying 70 metric tonnes of fortified high-energy date bars, which crossed over from Egypt, were expected to arrive in Benghazi later in the day.

This would feed 5,000 people for a month, WFP said.
