Libya crisis: Parliament votes for foreign intervention

Libya crisis: Parliament votes for foreign intervention

‘Libya’s parliament has called for foreign intervention to protect civilians from deadly clashes between rival militia groups.
MPs were meeting in Tobruk in the east because of violence in the capital Tripoli and the second city Benghazi, and 111 out of 124 voted for the call.
Neither the UN nor any foreign power has any current plans to intervene.
Libya has been gripped by violence involving militias that spearheaded the 2011 uprising against Muammar Gaddafi.’
