30 December 2014 – The United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) strongly deplores the terrorist attack that targeted a hotel in Tobruk where the House of Representatives was in session.

This despicable act will only increase the determination of those Libyans seeking a political solution to forge ahead with their efforts to bring stability and security to Libya.

UNSMIL once again stresses that violence will not solve Libya's problems. The Mission urges Libyans to desist from violence and to seek to resolve their political and security crises through dialogue.
