Libya sets year-end deadline for weapons handover
A Libyan official says residents of the capital Tripoli have until the end of December to hand over weapons to authorities. The head of the Tripoli local council, Abdel-Rafik Bu Hajjar, also says that all non-Tripoli brigades in the city must leave by December 20 and that the Tripoli brigade itself would dissolve at the end of the month.
He said Tuesday all armed individuals must join security forces under the ministries of interior or defense or "return to civilian lives." (AP)
