By Libya Herald staff.

Tripoli, 28 November 2014:

Reports circulating in the media saying that the Libyan National Army has closed the port . . .[restrict]of Sirte are false, say port manager Mohamed Scewy.

Scewy told local media in Sirte that the port has not been operational since May, when it closed due to ongoing insecurity. At that time Scewy told the Libya Herald that the port facilities had been subjected to repeated attacks. [/restrict]
