Libya's official government bans Palestinians, Syrians and Sudanese from entry
Libya's official government has banned Palestinians, Syrians and Sudanese from entry because their countries are undermining the oil producing nation's security, the interior minister said.
The government of Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thinni runs only a rump state in eastern Libya after a rival group seized Tripoli in the summer, setting ups its own parliament and a government not recognized by world powers.
Thinni's government would therefore only be able to enforce the ban at the eastern airports of Tobruk and Labraq and the land crossing with Egypt. The country's crossing to Tunisia and airports in Misrata and Tripoli-Mitiga are out of its control.
