Libyan Military Intelligence Chief Killed in Car Bomb Blast in BenghaziPreviousNext

Brigadier Fowzi Mansouri, head of military intelligence for Libya's eastern Libyan National Army, was killed by an explosive device detonated in his car outside his home in Benghazi's Hawari area. The attack occurred Monday evening, with no group claiming responsibility. Libya remains divided between the eastern-based Libyan National Army, led by Khalifa Haftar, and the internationally recognized Government of National Unity in Tripoli, despite a 2020 ceasefire.
