Libyan Politicians Call for PM Resignation Over Perceived Normalization with Israel

Abdul Hamid Dbeibah, the head of the Tripoli-based Government of National Unity has come under scrutiny for his reported role in attempting to normalize relations with Israel, with some calling for his dismissal. Libya’s rival parliament in the east, which rejects the GNU, said this it would hold hearings into the meeting between the Libyan foreign minister and her Israeli counterpart while the Tripoli-based Presidency Council asked Dbeibah for clarification and the High State Council, another important body, condemned it. Wolfgang Pusztai, former Austrian military attache, discussed the reactions in Libya with VOA’s Mohamed Elshinnawi.
