• Description

  Six point ceasefire for southern Tripoli. Ceasefire has an interesting 'signatory ritual' having each party issue a statement agreeing to the ceasefire. Ceasefire includes the withdrawal of armed groups, removal of checkpoints, and deletion of inflammatory social media accounts as well as stationing police (employed before 2011) to avoid a security vacuum. An enforcement committee is formed.

And, after lengthy discussions, the following was agreed upon:

Consolidation of the ceasefire that was agreed upon in the Zawiyah Agreement, and this shall be done by issuing a statement by the Minister of Interior followed by a statement from the city of Tarhuna confirming that they shall adhere to the ceasefire, and issuing a statement from the city of Tripoli confirming the ceasefire

An agreement was reached that the Tarhuna delegation would communicate with the Commander of the Al Sumoud Brigade, Mr. Salah Badi, in the scope of a complete framework for a ceasefire, and that the Tripoli delegation would communicate with Abdulghani Al Kakli and oblige him to adhere to the ceasefire

The attendees all confirmed the importance of them adhering to not carrying out detentions or abductions based on identities or taking private property, that they shall all adhere to spreading a message of de-escalation, tolerance, and reform, and that they will reject the pages on social media sites that call for fighting and sedition

The Minister of Interior shall be responsible for forming a force from the Security Directorates of Tripoli, Tarhuna, and Qasr Bin Ushair, with the participation of police officers in the Western Region who have been employed by the Ministry of Interior since before 2011.

These security directorates and the joint force shall be tasked with securing the area of Western Tripoli (from Salah Al Din to Qasr Bin Ushair) and the institutions that are in that area.

They shall do this in cooperation with the commander of the Tripoli Military Region.

A delegation of individuals who participated in the reconciliation and dignitaries who participated in the reconciliation and cease fire process shall be tasked with going into the areas of the fighting with the force that is formed by the Ministry of Interior to supervise the withdrawal of the parties back to their areas and the removal of the barriers and remnants of the fighting.

It should be noted that it is important for this group to coordinate with the Commander of the Tripoli Military Region in this regard.

A committee shall be formed of the men of the reconciliation by a decree from the Minister of Interior to be responsible for communication, the activation of the work of the security arrangements committee, and for following up with the implementation of its outputs.
