According to Reuters, a weekly flight to Tripoli, using a Tupolev Tu-154, will leave Moscow on Thursdays and fly the Moscow-Tripoli-Accra-Cotonou route, adding Tripoli to an existing route. Aeroflot claimed that it was able to resume flights to Libya, after President Yeltsin signed an order, on May 17th 1999, lifting Russia"s compliance with the UN sanctions.
