UN is committed to reaching a political settlement in Libya, says UN envoy for Libya Ghassan Salame, stressing that conflicting parties resorting to violence would not be accepted
Forces loyal to Libya's UN-backed unity government arrive in Tajura, a coastal suburb of the Libyan capital Tripoli, on April 6, 2019, from their base in Misrata.
"We strongly condemn the air raid... in the Al Aziziya region" by a plane, which had taken off from western Misrata," the forces media office said. Eastern Libyan forces on Friday seized the former Tripoli International Airport on the southern outskirts of the capital, a spokesman said. Guterres was deeply concerned after the meeting with Haftar who had ordered his self-proclaimed Libyan National Army and allied troops to march on Tripoli.
"They called on LNA forces to halt all military movements," said German UN Ambassador Christoph Heusgen, president of the council for April, reading a statement agreed by the body after it was briefed behind closed doors on the latest developments.
