#1  Jordan to be "probed" by Paramount Group. No one was supposed to know !

Paramount Group, South Africa’s leading military equipment company, is likely to probe Jordan after photos of South Africa-made armored Mbombe 6 emerged in the fighting for the control of Libyan capital Tripoli by east-based armed forces loyal to Khalifa Haftar.

Haftar is backed by the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and France.

Responding to press reports, the South African industrial company denied selling arms to any side in the North African country, Libya Express reports.

Ach! Maar, maar, maar, ons het geen idee gehad nie. (But, but, but, we had no idea).
