Senior Libyan National Army officials gathered in Benghazi on Tuesday for the funeral of military intelligence chief Fawzi al-Mansouri, killed in a car bombing a day earlier as he left a mosque. His assassination has raised fresh security concerns in Libya’s divided east.
The funeral brought together senior LNA officials and armed personnel, including Khaled and Saddam Haftar, sons of LNA commander Khalifa Haftar.
The LNA described al-Mansouri as a “heroic martyr” after an explosive attached to his car detonated as he was leaving a local mosque on Monday night.
Authorities have not identified those behind the attack.
