Libyan Islamists who say they have seized Tripoli airport accused the United Arab Emirates and Egypt on Saturday of involvement in two air raids against their forces in the past week.

"The Emirates and Egypt are involved in this cowardly aggression," a spokesman for the Fajr Libya (Libyan Dawn) operation said, reading out a statement to Libyan journalists in Tripoli.

He said the provisional Libyan government and the country's new parliament were accomplices to the raids.
