Libyan Prime Minister Fayez al-Sarraj has called for the unification of the country’s military on Thursday at the 66th anniversary of the establishment of the Libyan Army.

“On this occasion, I commend our sons of the armed forces who have sacrificed in the war on terror,” the prime minister, who is backed by the United Nations (UN),’’ his statement read.

Sarraj applauded the armed forces alongside the security forces for standing valiantly against the mercenaries, terrorists, human traffickers and smugglers in spite of the lack of major equipment.

Libya has been plagued by insecurity and political division between two governments, both competing for legitimacy, since the fall of Muammar Gaddafi’s government in 2011
