New clashes reported in Libya despite UN ceasefire call

Rival forces clash in the Libyan capital, witnesses and pro-Government of National Accord (GNA) forces say, a day after a UN Security Council resolution called for a “lasting ceasefire.”

Flights are again suspended at Mitiga, Tripoli’s sole functioning airport, following rocket fire, as fighting breaks out between forces loyal to the UN-recognized GNA and fighters of strongman Khalifa Haftar in the capital’s south.
