| 2018-03-05 |
| [Libya Herald] The main coastal road linking 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... with the Tunisian border was reopened yesterday by the Special Missions section of the Presidency Council’s (PC) Ministry of Interior police force. The section of the coastal road between Janzour at the 27km bridge and Maya had been blocked using soil barriers after festivities between locals and gunnies from the Wershafana area had erupted last week. In a statement about the road reopening, the PC Ministry of Interior stressed that it was not taking part in any regional or tribal struggles. It stressed that its uniformed personnel were carrying out their role and duties to the Libyan citizens as prescribed by law. It called on the public to respect and support the uniformed police and called for a halt to divisive ...politicians call things divisivewhen when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive,they're principled... and inciteful language. It will be recalled that the coastal road has been closed off on numerous occasions since 2011 as part of ongoing regional festivities between the coastal urban areas west of Tripoli and the interior Wershafana region ‐ deemed to be aligned with the former Qadaffy regime and seen as having lost out politically post 2011. |
