Syrian Militia Leader Dies Following A Security Operation in Tripoli
[ALMARSAD.CO] A source from the Western Region Operations Group affiliated to the General Command of the Libyan National Army said in an exclusive statement to Al Marsad: "Thanks to the cooperation of Libyan elements affiliated with the Ministry of Interior of the Government of the National Accord (GNA) who oppose the presence of the Syrians in Tripoli...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... , we obtained valuable information during the interrogation of the militia leader on the names of Libyan figures working closely with the GNA’s Interior Minister Fathi Bashagha." The source added that the militia leader was injured while trying to escape, and the LNA Security Room received him injured and provided him with treatment before interrogating him, adding: "But he later died due to internal bleeding." The LNA source refused to disclose the identity of the Libyan elements specifically, however he pointed out to their association with the "Tripoli Protection Force." He lauded the effort and cooperation of these Libyan elements against the Syrian terrorist militias in Tripoli, because they are danger that exceeds all other risks. The LNA contact stressed that this cooperation will be considered and appreciated in the future. A video clip obtained by Al Marsad shows the injured Syrian terrorist in a car and that he was from the city of Aleppo. Al Marsad obtained later a second video of his death, after emergency treatment had failed. Posted by: Fred 2020-03-06 |
