🇱🇾 BREAKING: LIBYA ON EDGE AS POWERFUL MILITIA CHIEF ASSASSINATED IN TRIPOLI
Massive unrest has erupted across Tripoli tonight after the reported assassination of Abdul Ghani al-Kikli, also known as “Gheniwa”, commander of the powerful Stability Support Authority (SSA).
Sources indicate al-Kikli was killed during a meeting inside Takbali Camp, allegedly by members of the 444th Combat Brigade—a rival faction.
Key developments:
Libyan Interior Ministry has urgently called on all Tripoli residents to remain in their homes for safety. The Libyan Army has been ordered to advance on the SSA headquarters and restore control. Heavy clashes between pro-government forces and paramilitaries are ongoing across the city. Civilian flights are being evacuated from Mitiga Airport amid rising fears of all-out conflict. This assassination threatens to plunge Libya into a renewed civil war, particularly between rival forces in Tripoli and Misrata.
Al-Kikli was a deeply influential figure tied to the Government of National Unity (GNU) and played a central role in Tripoli’s fragile security structure. His killing could reshape the country’s militia balance and undermine the already fragile peace efforts.
