| [Libya Herald] Six Tawerghans were murdered this morning in a raid on the Tawerghan refugee camp in Fallah district, a Tawergha official has told the Libya Herald. The six were killed, according to refugee activist Emad Ergai, when three gunnies arrived at about 9.30 am in a vehicle marked "Steadfast Misrata" and started started shooting indiscriminately. Ergai also claimed that five others were maimed, two of them critically. The two were taken to 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... Central Hospital, he said. The other three were being treated in the camp clinic. The allegations are, however, unconfirmed. According to a Facebook site, one of the dead was named Abdulmutallab Abu Bakr Abu Zataya. He is said to have been shot in the head. The site said the attackers had been armed with Kalashnikovs and initially could not enter the camp because the gate had been shut as a precaution following yesterday's slaughter in nearby Gharghour. It is unclear if the alleged attacks are linked to yesterday's tragedy. |
