Haftar shuts down oil facilities in Eastern Libya

Militants and activists loyal to Libyan warlord Khalifa Haftar on Saturday blocked oil exports from the country's key ports, despite a temporary truce between Haftar's forces and the rival United Nations-backed government based in Tripoli, Deutsche Welle reports.

Protesters barred an oil tanker from docking at the Hariga port off Tobruk, several news agencies reported.

Tribal groups, meanwhile, seized several large export terminals along the eastern coast as well as southern oil fields over the past two days.
