Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zaidan said that Libya would not cut ties with Egypt, as is rumored, according to a Libyan news agency.
On the other hand, Egyptian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Badr Abdel Aatty denied the rumors of Libyan authorities granting the Egyptian ambassador in Tripoli 48 hours to leave the country.
"Relations between the two brotherly countries are normal and communication between the two countries are conducted as usual across all channels and at all levels," Abdel Aatty added.
