Foreign minister Mohamed Abdelaziz announced that Libya has completely destroyed the chemical arsenal it inherited from Muammar Gaddafi. 

"Libya has become totally free of usable chemical weapons that might present a potential threat to the security of local communities, the environment and neighbouring areas," the minister said.

Organisation for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) also confirmed the same.
