Tripoli: Libya's internationally recognized government on Sunday condemned efforts to shut down operations at the Sharara oil field, describing them as “political blackmail”. After local protesters partially shut down the square on Saturday, the government said in a statement that it would not hesitate to try to defend the interests of the Libyan people. The Sharara field, one of Libya's largest production areas with a capacity of about 300,000 barrels per day, has been a frequent target of local protesters for various political reasons.
