Libya’s Ex-State Council Head Demands Unity Gov Ouster Over Israel Talks

Al-Mishri slammed the GNU after Israeli media reported al-Mangoush met with Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen in Rome last week – the first known talks between foreign ministers of the two countries. “The GNU has gone beyond all forbidden lines and it has become a duty to bring it down,” al-Mishri said in a statement. He pointed to information indicating there have been previous meetings between Libyan officials in this government and visits to occupied territories. The GNU, headed by Prime Minister Abdel Hamid Dbeibah, has not commented publicly on the reported meeting with Israel. But it was confirmed by multiple Israeli officials.
