| Libya Dawn accused of demolishing Warshefana homes |
| 2014-09-12 |
| [Libya Herald] Despite the government's denunciation yesterday of the continuous shelling of the Warshefana area to the west of 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... by 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... forces and warnings from the UN that such action may constitute war crimes, there has been no let up in the attacks. There are reports of more people killed and injured today, but no figures have been disclosed as yet. According to a member of the Warshefana Crisis Committee's media office -- in a move reminiscent of what happened to Tawergha -- forces that are part of the Libya Dawn operation have now also started bulldozing homes in the district. |
