Libya: MPs agree peace deal
MEMBERS of Libya two rival parliaments signed a UN-sponsored deal in Morocco yesterday, agreeing to form a unity government and try to bring peace to their country.
 
Supporters of the agreement hope that rival political factions and militias will embrace the deal and agree on a ceasefire.
