"TRIPOLI - Libya has shipped the last of its chemical weapons stocks out of the country on a Danish vessel, under a UN-backed plan to eliminate the arsenal, officials said Tuesday.

A senior security official told AFP the stocks were shipped to Germany on Saturday from the port of Misrata under the supervision of the United Nations.

The deputy prime minister of Libya's Government of National Accord, Mussa el-Koni, confirmed the operation, saying: 'All of Libya's chemical arsenal has been shipped out of the country.'"
