Hamza was transferred on Tuesday afternoon to the prison of the Stability Support Agency, another armed wing linked to Libya's Presidential Council, a source from the 444 Brigade, which brokered the ceasefire that remains in place on Wednesday, confirmed to EFE. "We face the danger of armed formations and we urge increased institutional support in the city of Zawiya. We must take care of the youth," Haddad declared at the time. Both Libya's Tripoli-based High Council of State, which is linked to the GUN, and the Libyan parliament, based in the eastern part of the country under Haftar's military control, condemned the attacks. Both rival chambers advocated the development of a political roadmap, through the 6+6 Joint Committee, to move forward in convening parliamentary and presidential elections and unifying the country, whose western part faces growing internal insecurity due to rivalry between militias.
