The United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) has called for de-escalation in Tripoli, following reports of military mobilization and tensions between rival armed factions in the Libyan capital.
According to local media, military tensions could be observed in Tripoli, with military vehicles and fighters deployed across the city.
Since the fall of the late leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, Libya has been plagued by insecurity and political instability.
