Libya Parliament reappoints PM as govt loses grip on ministries |
2014-09-02 |
[ARABNEWS] Libya's Parliament reappointed Prime Minister Abdullah Al-Thinni on Monday as the government lost control of ministries in the capital where gangs have taken over and a separate parliament has claimed legitimacy. In another sign of the oil producer sliding deeper into anarchy, gunnies launched a new attempt to seize Benghazi's civilian and military airport from army forces allied to a renegade general. At least 13 soldiers from Haftar's forces were killed and 45 maimed, medics said. The Parliament that was elected in June moved to the remote eastern city of Tobruk last month as rival gangs battled for Tripoli |
