Libyan envoy to the UN Ibrahim Dabbashi hoped the final round of talks between rival Libyan factions would "succeed."

The talks, which are being in the Moroccan town of Skhirat on Monday, discuss "a new draft" of a political end to the conflict, Dabbashi told Libyan news website of Al Wasat

The talks came amid a worsening humanitarian crisis, with thousands of refugees having died this year attempting to make the crossing from Libya to Europe, and 2,000 rescued last weekend alone by European warships.
