Libya fighting eases after announcement of truce

A ceasefire was implemented in Tripoli on Wednesday following several days of heavy fighting among competing armed factions in the city.
The violence erupted after the killing of Abdul Ghani al-Kikli, head of the Stability Support Apparatus, amid weeks of rising tensions among militias.
The Libyan Defence Ministry announced the ceasefire and deployed neutral police units to key areas to prevent renewed fighting and protect civilians.
The Health Ministry urged emergency teams, ambulance services, and medical personnel to resume work immediately to ensure urgent healthcare delivery in strained Tripoli facilities.
The truce eased fighting and may stabilize Tripoli temporarily, though prolonged conflict risks escalating into wider clashes among Libya's fragmented armed factions.
