Egypt President: Abdel Fattah al-Sisi denies role in Libya air strikes




President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi denied on Sunday that the Egyptian armed forces are involved in any military operation in Libya, official news agency MENA reported.


“We didn’t take part in any military act outside our borders so far,” Sisi said during his meeting with the state newspapers editors-in-chief.

The Islamists in Libya have claimed that Egypt along with the United Arab Emirates were behind the recent air strikes on their bases around Tripoli airport on Friday night that killed 11 fighters.
