The Algerian ​Foreign ⁢Ministry urged the Libyan parties to find a peaceful solution to the crisis, achieve reconciliation, reunite institutions, and end foreign interference.

Yesterday, the UN mission, along with France,‍ Italy, Germany, Britain, and ​the ‍United States, expressed concern over ongoing military movements in southwestern Libya, warning of the risk of escalation and violent confrontation.

The movements of Haftar’s forces towards⁣ the southwest have angered ​the⁢ military forces ‍in the west, leading to heightened⁣ alert ⁢among the latter. Lieutenant General Salah Al-Namroush, Deputy Chief of Staff, instructed army units to prepare⁢ for any ⁤potential attack.

Haftar’s forces announced their intention to secure the areas of Sabha, Ghala, Marouq, Qatrun, Brak al-Shati, and Adre⁤ as part⁢ of their‌ southern security operation.
