A spokesman for a rogue Libyan general says his forces have attacked parliament to arrest Islamists there, but were met with resistance. Mohammed al-Hegazi, a spokesman for General Khalifa Hiftar, made the comments to Libya's Alahrar television station after heavy gunfire erupted Sunday outside the Libyan parliament. Lawmakers say security officials evacuated them from the building.
Lawmaker Omar Bushah told Reuters gunmen had entered the General National Congress (GNC) and set the building on fire.
