BENGHAZI (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 21st April, 2020) Former Libyan Interim Prime Minister Abdurrahim El-Keib, who served nearly a year from 2011 to 2012, has died on Tuesday at the age of 70 as a result of a heart attack, local media reported.

El-Keib was the country's first prime minister of the transitional government, which began work after the Libyan civil war triggered by the ouster and assassination of the country's long-time leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.
