Libya

Prime minister al Thinni announced that most governmental ministries and institutions in Tripoli are out of Parliament’s control; Islamist forces are also said to now control about 80 percent of Benghazi. Islamist forces including Ansar al Sharia and the February 17 Brigade renewed attacks in Benghazi, killing at least 10 Operation Dignity soldiers. The Foreign Ministry scolded Turkey for interference in Libya’s affairs after the president of Turkey reportedly said he “fundamentally cannot accept the parliament meeting in Tobruk.” Islamist forces have taken over the US Embassy compound and nearby residential annex in Tripoli, according to a Libya Dawn commander.
