  "account": "Chief of Libya's military intelligence in the eastern National Army, Fawzi Al-Mansouri, was killed in a bomb blast in Benghazi. An improvised explosive device was detonated outside his home in the Hawari area. Details about the perpetrators and the explosive device remain unclear. This attack underscores the ongoing security issues in Libya, where rival administrations and armed factions persist despite a 2020 ceasefire that ended major hostilities. Libya has been split between eastern and western factions since 2014, following the 2011 uprising that removed longtime dictator Muammar Gaddafi. The LNA, led by Khalifa Haftar, governs much of eastern and southern Libya and operates from Benghazi. Meanwhile, the internationally recognized government is based in Tripoli and exerts control over significant portions of western Libya.",
