The head of Libya’s Government of National Unity says an election is the only solution to the crisis engulfing the country.

Abdul Hamid Al Dbeibah said he supports protesters, agrees that all institutions should leave including the government, and that there is no way to do that except through a poll.

Al Dbeibah’s comments came after protesters stormed the parliament building in the eastern city of Tobruk and staged the biggest demonstration for years in capital Tripoli.
