al-Werfalli, the militia commander of Haftar, who had arrest warrant by the International Criminal Court for committing a war crime in Libya, died as a result of the assassination in Benghazi. According to reports in Libyan local media, Haftar's militia commander Mahmud al-Werfalli was attacked near the Arab Medical University in Benghazi city. It was stated that Verfelli died as a result of the attack.

The ICC issued an arrest warrant against al-Werfalli in 2017 on the grounds that "he committed a war crime, killed 33 people in different regions of Benghazi and executed 6 people without trial".

In September 2020, the European Union put al-Werfalli and some others on the sanction list with three entities for violating human rights in Libya.

Numerous images were reflected on social media in past, about mass executions and repressive actions against civilians that al-Werfalli and his militia gangs had committed. Libyan activists were condemned these in same period and stated that Verfelli's move once again revealed the state, institutions and law not functioning in the regions under Haftar's control.

Last year Haftar assigns war criminal al-Werfalli to recruit soldiers, despite all international decisions.
