We saw the first attack using a improvised explosive device (IED) in Tripoli on Saturday ('car bomb').
Our team assess that it was a remote controlled IED (RCIED). This is a concerning development which demonstrates the porosity of the security forces but also a local capability to build explosive devices locally. The levels of sophistication are questionable (1 reported injury) but the capability versus intent balance is potentially troubling.
A continuance of these style of events, with high media payoffs, will discredit the political apparatus and also test local tolerances and confidence.
We continue to monitor carefully.
