schema:articleBody	Libya's UN-recognised government Thursday rejected a truce unilaterally called the day before by military strongman Khalifa Haftar, saying it "did not trust" the announcement made by its eastern-based rival. The Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA) said in a statement that it will continue in its "legitimate defence", attacking "any threat where it exists and putting an end to outlaw groups". It was referring to forces loyal to Haftar, who launched an offensive on the capital in April last year. Haftar said Wednesday his forces would cease hostilities for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which began on April 24, following international calls for a truce in the war-torn country. "The commander general announces the halting of military operations from his side," said Ahmad al-Mesmari, a spokesman for Haftar -- who controls the east and swathes of southern Libya -- from the city of Benghazi. However, fighting did not stop in Tripoli after Mesmari's announcement, with explosions still heard from the centre of the capital, according to an AFP correspondent. Since fighting began in April 2019, several ceasefires between Haftar's forces and the GNA have fallen through, with both sides accusing the other of violations. "These violations make it so we do not trust truce announcements (from Haftar)," the GNA said in its statement. Any "ceasefire needs to have international safeguards and mechanisms" to monitor its implementation and to document violations, the GNA added. Last week, the UN, EU and several countries called for both sides to lay down their arms during the holy month. Haftar's announcement came after his forces suffered a series of setbacks in recent weeks, with GNA forces ousting them from two key coastal cities west of Tripoli. The North African nation has been gripped by chaos since the 2011 ouster and killing of longtime dictator Moamer Kadhafi, with rival administrations in the east and west vying for power. ila/vl/sw/dwo
