UNSC votes to end military action in Libya
United Nations, Oct 28: The UN Security Council has unanimously voted to bring to an end the authorised international military action in Libya on October 31 following the death of Muammar Gaddafi that brought an end to the bloody conflict in the country.
The resolution passed yesterday said that the liberation of the North African country after Gaddafi's death offers better prospects for a "democratic, peaceful and prosperous future". The 15-member UN body unanimously passed Resolution 2016 ending the UN mandate that had allowed military intervention as also terminating the no-fly zone over Libya that had been imposed in March this year.
