Education Ministry refutes study suspension rumors

The Ministry of Education in the Tripoli-based Salvation Government has falsified announcing Thursday as a day off and suspending study in the capital.
In a statement early on Thursday, the Ministry reassured the parents of the students around the capital that everything is normal and they can send their children to schools like always.
Last night, rumors spread on social media and on Al-Arabya TV that the Ministry of Education suspended schools due to fears of fight outbreak in the capital upon the arrival of the UN-backed Presidential Council, headed by Fayiz Al-Serraj.
