TRIPOLI (Reuters) - The signing of a long-delayed peace deal between Libya's warring factions has been pushed back again to Thursday because of logistical problems, a U.N. spokesman said on Wednesday.

Representatives from Libya's two rival factions were due to agree the U.N.-backed accord on Wednesday after months of wrangling and opposition from hardliners in both camps.
