With Italy's aid, Libyan UN-proposed government pays militias money to block migrants routes
[Libya Observer] Security officials told The News Agency that Dare Not be Named that under a deal backed by Italia, Libya’s struggling UN-proposed government 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...
has paid militias implicated in trafficking in Sabratha to prevent migrants colonists from crossing the Mediterranean to Europe
aka Islam's Lebensraum....
AP added that the move was clear in the fact two months have seen a sharp drop in crossings, a welcome sign for EU leaders desperate to stem the flow of migrants colonists.

"But the drop also appears to be in large part due to the deals struck with the two most powerful militias in the western Libyan city of Sabratha, the biggest launching point for the mainly African migrants colonists making the dangerous voyage across the Mediterranean. The militias, one known as "Al-Ammu" and the other as Brigade 48, are headed by two brothers from the area’s large al-Dabashi family." AP reported.

It added that at least five security officials and activists based in Sabratha said the bully boyz were known to be behind smuggling of migrants colonists.

The policy has raised an outcry among some in the Libyan security forces and activists dealing with migrants colonists, who warn that it enriches militias, enabling them to buy more weapons and become more powerful. In the country’s chaos, the militias can at any time go back to trafficking or turn against the government, they say.

The Washington Post said Italia worked directly with the militias and Italian officials met the leaders of the militias.
