Five boys injured by rocket in Benina
 [Libya Herald] Five boys were maimed today when a rocket landed near where they were playing football outside Benghazi’s Benina sports stadium.All five were taken to Jalaa hospital from which two were released after treatment for shock and minor wounds. The other three have been kept in but their injuries are not reported to be life-threatening. The rocket is thought to have been fired from Ganfouda where IS and Ansar al-Sharia ...a Salafist militia which claims it is not part of al-Qaeda, even though it works about the same and for the same ends. There are groups of the same name in Libyaand Yemen, with the Libyan versions currently most active. Tunisia's Shabaab al-Tawhid started out an Ansar al-Sharia and changed its name in early 2014. It still uses the old name now and then, probably because the stationery's not all used up and the web site hasn't expired yet... snuffies and their allies in the Benghazi Revolutionaries’ Shoura Council are still surrounded but frustrating efforts by the army to overrun their final large position in the city. The snuffies are also continuing to hold out in downtown Sabri and Suq al-Hud. Posted by: Fred 2016-10-16 |
