TRIPOLI, Jan. 19 (Xinhua) -- Libyan Airport Authority announced on Friday that the capital's M'etiga international airport will reopen on Saturday, after five days of closure due to heavy clashes.

"The Airports Authority announces resumption of air traffic to and from M'etiga international airport, starting from Saturday morning and following the relative stability of the security situation in the area," the Authority said in a statement.

Security services closed M'etiga international airport in Tripoli on Monday, following a heavy armed attack by an armed group on the airport, killing 21 people and injuring 69 others, including civilians.

International flights to and from Libya M'etiga airports were transferred to Misurata International Airport, some 200 east of Tripoli.

The UN-backed government issued a statement condemning the attack, "which threatened the lives of travelers, nearby residents and the safety of air traffic."
