Tripoli was plunged into violent unrest after reports surfaced of the assassination of Abdelghani al-Kikli, the influential head of the UN-backed Stability Support Apparatus (SSA). Armed clashes erupted across key neighborhoods, including Abu Salim and Mashrou, with heavy gunfire and explosions shaking the capital overnight. Panic spread rapidly as rival militias—reportedly the 111th and 444th brigades—stormed the SSA headquarters following failed negotiations. Social media footage shows bodies on the streets and burning vehicles, while hospitals brace for a surge in casualties.
