TUNIS (Reuters) - Eastern Libyan commander Khalifa Haftar said in a broadcast on Friday that his forces had decided to resume oil production after having blockaded export facilities since January, without giving further details.
However, Libya's National Oil Corporation said overnight it would not lift force majeure on exports until oil facilities were demilitarized.
