Third Force: Fuel and gas cylinders arrive in Sabha
[Libya Observer] The commander of the Third Force that is securing the southern region, Jamal al-Triki, said fuel and cooking gas arrived in Sabha oil stock, pointing out that the operation was secured by the Third Force personnel.

Talking to the press, al-Triki said Monday that the fuel started arriving in the city on last Saturday while the trucks loaded with cooking gas cylinders have resumed the journey to Sabha this morning.

"The road between Misrata and Sabha is safe. There are no security violations on the road. The Third Force secured the fuel tanker trucks from Misrata to Sabha oil stock." al-Triki added.

He also denied what he called the rumors that said the Third Force prevented the trucks laden with gas cylinders and fuel to enter the southern region, stressing that it was some fighters of Mohammed Ben Nayel’s force who set up checkpoints on some roads that lead to the south and then stopped the trucks and disallowed them to reach southern oil stocks.

Libya’s southern districts have been suffering from an acute shortage of fuel and cooking gas for days due to the hurdles put in the way of the trucks disallowing them to arrive to the oil stocks.
