Libya has had rival administrations since August 2014, when the Islamist-backed Fajr Libya militia alliance overran Tripoli, forcing the elected government to take refuge in the far east near the border with Egypt. Under the UN plan, the new government is to be formed within 40 days of the accord's signing. - Photo credit MAHMUD TURKIA/AFP/Getty Images)
