UN warns of rapidly deteriorating situation in Libya
Forces loyal to the UN-appointed interim prime minister Abdul Hamid Dbeibah arrive from Misrata to Tripoli in show of support, February 12, 2022

THE top UN official in Libya warned on Tuesday that the political, military and security situation in the oil-rich north African country has deteriorated “quite rapidly” over the past two months.

Stephanie Khoury insisted that without renewed political talks leading to a unified government and elections, there will be greater instability.
