Libya PM presents new cabinet to rival Tripoli govt
 

https://s.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/lu...28eebfc083.jpgLibya's internationally recognised premier presented Wednesday a new cabinet to parliament in the eastern city of Tobruk, in opposition to a Tripoli government, as the strife-torn country's political divisions deepened. The administration of Abdullah al-Thani and parliament, elected in June, both moved to Tobruk in August for security reasons when Islamist-backed militias captured most of the capital Tripoli and second city Benghazi. Since then, the dissolved interim parliament, or General National Congress (GNC), has been reinstated in Tripoli and a rival government named under Omar al-Hassi. Libya has been rocked by political instability since a NATO-backed uprising toppled and killed dictator Moamer Kadhafi in 2011.
