A government based in eastern&nbsp;Libya&nbsp;said on Wednesday it would bar entry to US&nbsp;citizens after President Donald Trump&#39;s administration included&nbsp;Libya&nbsp;in a new travel ban.

The eastern-based government of Abdullah al-Thinni is aligned with&nbsp;Libyan military commander Khalifa Haftar and is opposed to the internationally recognised Government of National Accord (GNA) in Tripoli.

Announcing its ban, the eastern-based government said it was responding to &quot;a dangerous escalation that targets&nbsp;Libyan citizens and puts them in the same basket as the terrorists against whom our... armed forces are fighting&quot;.
