Libya's oil exports at major ports remained suspended on Monday, with national production sharply reduced, six engineers confirmed.

The halted exports were reported at key ports such as Es Sidra, Ras Lanouf, Hariga, Zueitina, Brega, and Sirte. This disruption comes amid a broader national struggle to manage energy needs.

However, some oil output has been redirected to boost local power generation, highlighting the country's critical approach to balancing export commitments and domestic energy demands.
