Has Khalifa Haftar's campaign in Libya failed?



Renegade military commander loses last stronghold in western Libya following similar defeats.


Renegade military commander Khalifa Haftar's ambitions in Libya are unravelling quickly.
The 76-year-old launched an offensive 14 months ago to capture the capital, Tripoli, from the United Nations-recognised Government of National Accord (GNA).
The GNA's forces say they have regained full control of Tripoli and pushed Haftar's fighters from Tarhuna, their last stronghold in western Libya.
This follows weeks of similar defeats and losses of territory for Haftar's forces along the coast.
