The two sides in Libya's ongoing civil war have declared a cease fire.

The Government of National Accord (GNA) and the Libyan National Army (LNA) signed the agreement in Geneva on Friday after UN-brokered talks, according to various media reports.

The deal is expected to end the fighting, the US Associated Press reported. Concrete details were not immediately available.

The country, an Opec member, had recently begun producing oil again, with the expectation that crude exports could hit a nine month high.
