Protesters ransack election commission headquarters in Libya
Protesters in Benghazi have ransacked the region's electoral authority headquarters in a protest against the proposed division of power.
Pro-autonomy leaders said the protesters wanted a fairer distribution of seats in the new parliament to give a balance between the east and west.
Libya is to elect a new parliament on 7 July, in the first democratic polls since the ousting of Muammar Gaddafi.
