Armed Gunmen Reportedly Surround Libyan Prime Minister Dbeibeh's Office in Tripoli
[SPUTNIKNEWS] According to local reports, a group of armed button men has surrounded the Presidential Council building in the Libyan capital city of Tripoli
...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn...
Photos shared on social media purported to show armed button men in technicals posted up around the offices of Prime Minister Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh, leader of the Government of National Unity.
Video purported to be of the button men at the site was also shared on social media, along with footage of the technical convoy on the highway.
According to al-Arabiya, power has been cut to the building as well.
Sky News Arabia reported that Salah Badi

, leader of the al-Samoud Brigade militia, announced on Wednesday night that there would be no presidential elections in Libya and the UN-sanctioned group would close all state institutions in Tripoli.
Elections are presently scheduled for December 24, but earlier on Wednesday, the head of the Interior Affairs Committee in the Libyan House of Representatives warned the country wouldn't be ready to hold elections by then and called on the government to accept the situation. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said earlier that a postponement of the elections would be acceptable provided the outcome is accepted.
