| 2015-04-19 |
| [Libya Herald] In a strongly worded statement issued today, the Libyan government condemned the international community, UNSMIL and its head Bernardino Leon for failing to condemn the Libya Dawn ...aka Fajr Libya, the Islamist operation launched to counter that of General Khalifa Haftar (Operation Dignity). It is made up of the Libya Shield militia (Misrata and Moslem Brotherhood), Libya Revolutionaries Operations Room (Moslem Brotherhood), and Tripoli Brigade (close to Abdul Hakim Belhaj, head of Al-Watan party). Financing and moral support come from Turkey and Qatar... actions against civilians in Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... The government accuses Leon of not being neutral, of practicing double standards in his dealings with Libya and of not fully understanding what is happening in Libya. It further says in its statement that it holds the international community and UNSMIL responsible for what is happening in Libya and calls for international help in protecting civilians in Tripoli. |
