The sea port in Libya's capital Tripoli was attacked on Tuesday, UN Libya envoy Ghassan Salame said, without giving details.
A Reuters reporter in Tripoli, which eastern forces have been trying to take, could see heavy smoke billowing from the port area. A port source said a warehouse had been hit.
