The secret operation on 15 June near Benghazi to seize Ahmed Abu Khattala was an "infringement on Libya's sovereignty", Libyan diplomats said.

Washington earlier said Mr Abu Khattala was being held in a secure location outside Libya.

US ambassador Chris Stevens and three others were killed in the 2012 raid.
'Key figure'

"The Libyan government condemns this regrettable infringement on Libya's sovereignty," Libyan foreign ministry spokesman Saeed Alaswad said on Wednesday.
