The Libyan delegation has walked from the two-day Arab summit, reported Al-Jazira satellite channel. 

Libya said it was walking out of the summit because the forum was failing to push for a clear diplomatic break with Israel, according to AFP.  

Libyan Leader Moammer Kadhafi refused to attend the summit, but he was represented by his permanent delegate to the Arab League, Abdel Moneim al-Honi, said the agency. 

Meanwhile, Arab leaders ended a three-hour break, and re-convened their summit Saturday designed to support the Palestinians in the violent conflict with Israel, said AFP – (Several Sources)
