Violent Clashes Erupt in Libyan Capital

Violent Clashes Erupt in Libyan Capital
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Heavy and medium weapon clashes broke out inside the External Security Apparatus headquarters in the Sebaa district of Tripoli, according to eyewitness reports.

Libya Press reported, citing witnesses, that members of the External Security forces closed the coastal road near Al-Jadida Prison and directed traffic in the opposite direction to avoid the conflict area.

Libya has been in a state of political chaos since the 2011 overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi. The country is divided between two rival administrations: the Government of National Unity (GNU) based in Tripoli, and an eastern administration.

This divide has led to ongoing conflict and instability, with each side vying for control over Libya’s resources and key institutions.

Efforts to bring the country together through national elections have been repeatedly delayed due to disputes over who is eligible to run for office and the lack of a unified legal framework. Libya’s vast oil wealth has only deepened the divide, as control of oil fields and revenues remains a contentious issue between the East and West.

The country is also plagued by the presence of foreign mercenaries, militias, and external interference, all of which complicate efforts to build a functioning, unified government.
