"The forces of the Libyan [National] Army have gained control over the Yarmouk camp to the south of capital Tripoli," the source said.
Last week, Haftar announced an offensive against Tripoli in a bid to oust "militias" from the city. On April 7, forces loyal to the GNA said that they were launching a counteroffensive operation, dubbed Volcano of Rage.
Since the beginning of the offensive, the Libyan National Army, has already gained control over several cities near Tripoli and over Tripoli International Airport. The GNA later said that the airport had been retaken by its forces, but the LNA refuted the claims.
LNA has declared a no-fly zone over the western parts of Libya, which are governed by the UN-backed Government of National Accord (GNA), and has warned that all aircraft, apart from commercial flights, that breach the restrictions will be targeted by the LNA, the forces' spokesman, Ahmed Al-Mismari, said.
"We are implementing a #NoFlyZone over west #Libya, any military jet will be considered a target as well as its takeoff location. This includes Aerial photography and excludes commercial flights," the spokesman tweeted late on Sunday.
