CAIRO —
Tunisia and Egypt's Cairo airport have canceled all flights to Libya, officials in the three countries said on Thursday.
Tunisian aviation officials gave no explanation, but Libyan news agency LANA said Cairo airport authorities had canceled flights to and from the neighboring country for security reasons.
The closure of airspace came after the Libyan government said on Monday unidentified war planes had attacked positions of armed groups in Tripoli fighting with a rival faction for control of the capital.
