Libyan Army Gives Militias 48 Hours to Get Out

Just a day after Benghazi residents chased militias out of their city, the Libyan army gave militias forty-eight hours to get out of Tripoli.

If the militias aren't out by then, the army has pledged to use force to push them out.

Two militias in Derna have pulled out of the city, on their own accord, whilst a third promised to be out by the end of Sunday.

Both the Bou Salim Martyrs and Ansar al-Sharia militia groups have pledged that they will disband.

Eight members of Ansar al-Sharia are amongst those under arrest for the deadly attack against the US consulate in Benghazi, on September 11.

The moves of the last couple days show that the people of Libya simply will not allow terror and violence to have any place in their country.
