Intermittent fighting between the Zintani and Islamist militias continued in Tripoli, and another fuel tank near the airport was set on fire. The UK said it is pulling out its diplomatic staff from Libya and relocating them to Tunis in Tunisia. After thousands demonstrated yesterday in Benghazi against Islamist forces including Ansar al Sharia and the Libya Shield, a council of tribal leaders from eastern Libya called for a ceasefire; one leader warned that Ansar al Sharia is planning to attack the Saiqa Special Forces headquarters at Benina Airbase that was recently forced out of Buatni.
