Libya’s outgoing prime minister, Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh, and chairman of the Presidential Council, Mohamed Menfi, held a meeting on Sunday with several security officials, including members of 5+5 Joint Military Committee, and chiefs of intelligence, military police and counter-terrorism.
According to a brief statement by Dbeibeh’s government, the talks focused on the “latest military developments, the course of action of the 5+5 Joint Military Committee, and the steps taken to unify the military institution, away from all political squabbles, and follow up on the continuation of the ceasefire”.
The gathering notably comes just two days after the capital witnessed violent clashes between armed groups for the second time in less than a month.
