2nd Tripoli Fuel Depot Ablaze, in 'Very Dangerous' Turn
2014-07-29
[An Nahar] Libya said a second fuel depot caught fire Monday 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...
, in a "very dangerous" development following a huge oil tank blaze triggered by festivities around the capital's airport.

"The situation is very dangerous after a second fire broke out at another petroleum depot," the government said, warning of a "disaster with unforeseeable consequences".

#2  Some of my Libyan friends have posted pictures on Facebook of the fire and it is BAD.

Libya never had the first responder infrastructure for emergencies such as this under Daffy and it is even less now. This could be a major disaster.

The country has spun out of control and only a miracle will keep the country from devolving into another Islamocidal mess.
