Fierce fighting has broken out near Tripoli as forces linked to General Khalifa Haftar launched a campaign to "liberate" the Libyan capital from a rival administration.
The UN-recognised government of Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thinni said on Saturday that Haftar's troops had been deployed south of Tripoli as it attempted to seize control of the city from the General National Congress (GNC) who govern it.
The UN has condemned the assault as rival politicians from the two administrations have been meeting in Morocco for peace talks.
