At least 42 people have died in a drone strike in south-western Libya carried out by the forces of rebel Gen Khalifa Haftar, local officials say.
The strike hit a town hall meeting in the town of Murzuq, reports say.
Gen Haftar’s forces – which are based in eastern Libya – say they targeted the town late on Sunday, but deny targeting civilians.
The country has been torn by conflict since the fall of long-time leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.
The air strike left “42 dead and more than 60 injured, 30 of them critically” at the town hall in Qalaa neighbourhood, where more than 200 people were at a meeting “to settle social differences”, council official Ibrahim Omar told AFP news agency.
Local media earlier reported that the strike had hit a wedding party.
