Islamist militias in Libya have challenged the legitimacy of the parliament after seizing control of Tripoli's main airport.
They have accused the government of carrying out air strikes on militia positions at the airport with the help of Egypt and United Arab Emirates. Egypt however, has denied any involvement in Saturday's attacks, reported the BBC.
The elected parliament, on the other hand, has branded the militias as terrorists.
Islamist forces from Misrata and other cities reclaimed the Tripoli international airport after a month-long battle with the Zintan militia, which has held it for three years.
Violence has spiked recently between the rival militias who ousted Muammar Gaddafi in the 2011 uprising.
