(ANSA) - TRIPOLI, 01 JUL - High tension in Libya.

A group of demonstrators stormed the parliament building in Tobruk to protest the deterioration of living conditions and political stalemate.

Several television stations claimed that the demonstrators entered the building and carried out looting.


    The images showed thick columns of black smoke rising from the perimeter of the building after young demonstrators burned tires.

According to other reports, documents were burned inside the building.


    This afternoon, demonstrations were organized in the city of Misrata and Tobruk, coinciding with a similar march in Tripoli, to denounce the deterioration of living conditions, to protest against the political forces that paralyze the country and to call for elections as soon as possible, al Wasat reported.


    Demonstrators in Misrata and Tobruk denounced in particular the crisis of power outages which have worsened recently without the successive governments being able to find a solution.

In Tobruk, dozens of young people gathered in front of the House of Representatives building in the eastern part of the city and set fire to some tires.
