Two workers at Libya's National Oil Corporation (NOC) have been killed after a militant attack on the company’s headquarters in Tripoli on Monday, according to local law enforcement. Earlier on Monday, witnesses reported hearing explosions and gunfire, with smoke rising from close to the NOC offices. #Libyapic.twitter.com/p7h8kU4n0N — Nadia Ramadan (@NadiaR_LY) September 10, 2018Tripoli has been shaken by clashes between rival armed groups since the beginning of this month. Libya’s oil production has plunged since the overthrow of long-serving ruler Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The port closure had blocked 850,000 bpd of Libya’s oil (nearly all Libya’s oil production) from being exported from the four ports for more than two weeks.
