Libya Fighting Kills 55 People
------------------------------

In Libya, at least 55 people have been killed in the heaviest fighting
between rival armed factions so far this year in Tripoli. Over 150
people were injured before a truce took hold on Wednesday. Libya has
been in a state of crisis for over a decade since the 2011 NATO-backed
operation to topple Muammar Gaddafi.
