UN concerned over Tripoli fighting

The UN Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) said it was deeply concerned about the Tripoli developments, during an extremely sensitive period of political polarization which the United Nations, international partners, and concerned Libyans are making efforts to resolve, calling on Libya’s political and security actors to exercise maximum restraint, demonstrate responsible leadership and address all disputes, both at the local and national levels, through dialogue.

The US ambassador to Libya, Richard Norland, said: “Such clashes should not continue or escalate and those responsible will pay a price with the Libyan people and the international community.”

UNSMIL called on all Libyans to do everything possible to preserve the country’s fragile stability at this sensitive time, commending the efforts of all Libyan notables and stakeholders who are working to defuse current tensions and resolve the ongoing political impasse.
