The GNC demanded that the US surrender Abu Anas al-Liby, an al Qaeda operative indicted by the US. Prime Minister Zeidan said the raid that captured al-Liby would not harm Libyan-US relations, but that Libyan suspects should be tried at home. Jihadists have issued calls to avenge al-Liby's capture. Armed members of the army's Battalion 166 stormed the Prime Minister's office demanding back pay. Police hunting members of an Islamist group who attacked a police checkpoint have surrounded the group near Sousa.
