The UN-backed Libyan government said Tuesday that Tripoli was shelled on Monday by its rival east-based army. The shelling caused damage to Tripoli's Arada district and wounded one. In April 2019, the east-based army, led by Khalifa Haftar, launched an offensive to seize Tripoli. Since then, the UN has documented at least 356 civilian deaths and 329 injuries.
