TRIPOLI - Libya's National Oil Corporation has warned of an environmental disaster as two huge oil storage tanks, set ablaze during fighting, continue to burn at the eastern port of Ras Lanuf.
The corporation urged the immediate withdrawal of forces opposed to the Libyan military strongman, General Khalifa Haftar.
His self-styled Libyan National Army has controlled the oil-producing region, which is crucial to the country's economy, since 2016.
A rival militia, known as the Petroleum Facilities Guard, began its attack on Thursday.
The Libyan Red Crescent says at least 28 people have died in the clashes.(FA)
