TRIPOLI: Fresh gunbattles have erupted in the Libyan capital between two powerful armed groups, a security official said Wednesday, just a day after authorities declared the fighting over.
Clashes flared between the Radaa force and the 444 Brigade in key areas of the city, including the port, the source said. No official casualty figures have been released for the latest fight yet, but the Libyan Red Crescent said it recovered a dead body from a major street in Tripoli. The official described the fighting as “urban warfare”, with intermittent clashes in residential areas involving light and medium weapons. In other areas, heavy weapons were being used.A source told AFP groups were moving into the capital from neighbouring Zawiya in support of Radaa.
