Extremist Images Brandished Immediately After Towns "Liberated" Away From Haftar's Forces

On April 13th, the Government of National Accord (GNA), with Turkish support made some significant gains west of Tripoli.

GNA forces took control of Sabratha, Sorman, Al-Ajilat, Al-Jameel, Rikdalin and Zalatan, after taking control of al Zawiyah earlier.

There is also video footage of GNA forces in Sabratha, after they captured it from Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar’s Libyan National Army (LNA).

This is the first time since April 2019, when the GNA actually makes significant gains and captures in the fight against the LNA.

The LNA were given a deadline until 12:55 local time on April 13th to surrender Sabratha peacefully, and when it expired heavy clashes began, in which the GNA had the upper hand.

This is likely a result of the fact that a sort of corridor, which is presumably quite dangerous was formed between the cities which the LNA controlled west of Tripoli. When moving, reinforcements would be pincered between two areas under GNA control.

After entering Sabratha, GNA fighters immediately showed photographs of extremist fighters.

In Tripoli itself, LNA’s push continues with full force, with heavy shelling on the southern part of the city.

On the side of the LNA, media reported that a group of pilots from among Haftar’s forces arrived in Damascus to undergo training on operating a Mi-25 attack helicopter, which the Syrian Arab Army has been using for a while now against militants.

According to an unnamed source, the LNA had 4 Mi-25 attack helicopters, and would potentially receive more from the countries that support it, as soon as it has more people who can actually fly them.

Finally, the source said that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had sent arge numbers of mercenaries loyal to him to support Haftar’s forces.

This was allegedly done either through the mythical “Wagner” PMC or other means. Allegedly, Syria had sent 3,000 fighters to fight on behalf of the LNA.

The report failed to report proven deployment of thousands of Syrian militants by Turkey to fight on behalf of the GNA.

Zionism = EVIL

The sad FACT is that after killing Kaddafi, both sides in the Libyan oil plunder are foreign owned cunts. The GNA is a front for western oil interests and Turkeys desire to rip off Libya, while Haftar is a pimp for Egyptians and UAE. There are NO GOOD GUYS IN LIBYA. Another FACT is that Erdogan is a Wahhabi arselicker and and a terrorist supporter so Libya moving towards headchopping extremism is hardly a shocker. Sisi the Zionist faggot on the other hands has no balls to challenge the Turkeys, so I see a long period of instability and violence. The best way to cut the Turkeys to size is to hit them hard in Syria. The Libyan conflict will prove to be Turkey’s Yemen, you guys take my comment to the nearest Jew bank and bank it for the future.

In the Arab world that would be a first, since most of them become dictators.
