The leaders of a movement for self-rule in oil-rich eastern Libyan have unilaterally announced the formation of a shadow government, the latest challenge to the weakened central authority.
The announcement on Thursday came several months after the movement, backed by some militias and local tribes, declared the eastern half of Libya to be an autonomous state, named Barqa, claiming broad self-rule powers and control
over resources.
The central government in Tripoli had rejected the declaration. It had no immediate comments on Thursday.
