The Lebanese government released Muammar Gaddafi's son Hannibal from prison, lifted the ban on his entry into the country, and dropped the $11 million bail.

Hannibal had been detained since 2015, and his release is said to be the result of Libya's diplomatic efforts.

He has now left Lebanon with a Libyan government delegation, a move being assessed as a turning point in the long-standing legal and political disputes.
