Islamist militias continued to clash with pro-government forces in Tripoli, where airstrikes reportedly targeted militias that had not agreed to the government’s order for a ceasefire. The Revolutionary Shura Council of Benghazi, which includes Ansar al Sharia, Libya Shield, and other Islamist groups, denounced the newly formed Shura Council of Benghazi, which is led by Muslim Brotherhood figures. Two state-owned TV stations that had been taken over by Islamists were shut down at the government’s request. Members of Parliament will be housed temporarily on a ship while they hold session in the coastal city of Tobruk.
