Foreign Affairs Minister, Mohamed Siala at a news conference in Tripoli
has called for an end to the fighting.

“We see that at the very least, the aggressor must retreat, giving a
chance for ceasefire and political resolution. That is the goal that we
have set forth, and we are in communication with all our friends and all
countries against this pursuit to lighten their positions “, he said.

“Schools have been bombed with heavy artillery. Recently, a book
storage unit has also been bombed, a storage unit containing books
necessary for the next academic year. This not only obstructs this
academic year, but the next academic year as well. These are all crimes
in breach of international law, and are even elevated to the level of war
crimes. Everything related to these crimes has been documented. We
have also communicated with the Security Council with written memos,
which have been distributed across all embassies abroad “, Siala said.

Libya descended in to all out war and chaos following the 2011 invasion and assassination of long serving leader Gaddafi, a close alley of France, Italy and the UK.

Libya fell apart from Africa’s wealthiest nation, with the highest wages and standards of living with the continent’s largest economy to all out war under UN occupation.

To date the UN enforced ‘National Accord’ hold the minority of geographic land, just a little larger than the city of Tripoli itself, however they do control the capital. Whilst the majority of the country remains loyal to the preexisting systems and rule.

Both sides blame each other for war crimes and civilian casualties. The assassination of Gaddafi as one of many enforced regime changes at the hands of the UN this century. Regime change by military force remains an international war crime and a crime first labelled as such by the UN themselves.


Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Al-Sahawat Times than ever but advertising revenues across the global media industry are falling fast. And unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a total paywall. We want to keep our journalism as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Al-Sahawat Times’ independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe truly ethical media and an unbias perspective really matters.

“I appreciate there not being a paywall: it is more democratic for the media to be available for all and not a commodity to be purchased by a few. I’m happy to make a contribution so others with less means still have access to information.”

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, the future of ethical media and the futures of our staff and their families would be much more secure. For as little as £1, you can support Al-Sahawat Times and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
