BM forces win fight for Sirte’s 600 apartment complex
[Libya Herald] Ten Bunyan Marsous fighters have been killed in Sirte as the last five apartment blocks in the 600 complex were finally wrested from IS control after several days of bitter fighting.One US air strike went in today as the hard boyz were driven in a still smaller area. At least 24 "civilians" women and kiddies, including babes in arms, crossed into BM lines. It is also reported that two more foreigners, a Turk and Egyptians were freed. It is not known how the pair originally fell in to IS hands. They are now being debriefed. It is understood that five other foreigners, two Turks, two Egyptians and a Bangladeshi,who were liberated on Thursday are still in Misrata. There has been no diplomatic nor media access to the men. In the course of today’s battles, BM forces came across some deep tunnels apparently used by the hard boyz to shelter from air strikes. Posted by: Fred 2016-10-25 |
