| The 'T Zone' -- where all Zawia is committed to the fight |
| 2014-11-10 |
| [Libya Herald] Libyan military operations are all about Kikla and Benghazi front-lines. However, there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened... the future of Libya could be decided in the so-called T Zone, 80 kilometres north-east of Zintan and 50 kilometres south of Zawia. It was retaken last week by Zawia brigades, which support Libyan Dawn. Zawia's fighters, civilians, businessmen ‐ even Bengladeshis working in the town ‐ are involved in trying to keep hold of the T Zone. "The fighting is now taking place 10 kilometres further west. We have hundreds of fighters there," Zawia commander Hamdi Al-Beshti told Libya Herald to the sound of distant "Dababas" (tanks) blasting away. |
