Libyan Minister Adel Juma Injured in Assassination Attempt

News summary

Libyan State Minister of Cabinet Affairs, Adel Juma, was injured in an assassination attempt while traveling on a highway in Tripoli, where unknown gunmen opened fire on his vehicle. The Government of National Unity (GNU), which is internationally recognized, condemned the attack and reported that Juma is in stable condition after being hospitalized due to a leg injury. The GNU emphasized its commitment to investigating the incident and pursuing those responsible, stating it will not tolerate threats to state security.

Previous attacks on government officials indicate a persistent security challenge in the region.
