Liktori ('Lictor') was a twice-weekly Albanian-Italian bilingual newspaper published from Korçë during the Italian occupation of Albania.[1][2] The newspaper was founded on July 9, 1939, replacing Korça fashiste ('Fascist Korçë') of Zhan Gorguzi (founded just a few days before).[1][2][3] Initially Dr. Guljelm Deba served as the director of Liktori. On September 14, 1940 (issue no. 124) Lluka Bibi took over as director.[1]

Liktori was the organ of the Korçë provincial federation of the Albanian Fascist Party.[2][4] It was one of five newspapers published in Albania at the time (all bilingual fascist organs).[4][5]

The format of the newspaper varied between 36x58 centimetres and 40x58 cm.[1] The newspaper used Tosk orthography.[1] The newspaper carried four or pages, one of them in Italian language.[1][6] It was published on Thursdays and Sundays.[1]

Liktori continued publication until 1943.[7]
