The UN says it’s deeply worried about ongoing clashes between armed groups in Libya and the threats to use force to solve the country’s political crisis.
Libya has been emmeshed in political stalemate for months after the country’s eastern-based parliament appointed a new prime minister, despite the fact there was already a prime minister in post in Tripoli who was refusing to cede power without an election.
There have been several recent shoot-outs between armed supporters of both men, which the UN fears could reignite wider conflict after two years of comparative peace.
