Tunis - Libya has accused the United States's Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Israeli Mossad agents of assassinating its ambassador to the Central African Republic last week.
Abdullah Awad Sanussi was shot by an unidentified gunman at his home in Bangui, capital of the Central African Republic, on August 29.
"Mossad and CIA agents are responsible for masterminding and executing that criminal and coward act," said Libya's African Unity Ministry in a statement to mourn the victim, read on state-run radio.
The statement was monitored in Tunis.
The ministry said it would "spare no effort to follow through on the investigation into the crime to uncover the perpetrators, who will be punished".
