[Libya Herald] The joint call to march on Gharghour after Jummah prayer by the 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...
Local Council (TLC) and local activists was well received. More than 1,500 protestors waited after the prayer in Alharida square for others from Fashloum, Ain Zara and Suq Al-Jumah to join them before they could begin their march to evict the brigades from Gharghour. They carried placards and the national flag of Libya. They also brought white flags in large numbers to signal their peaceful intent -- something that would later make no difference to the outcome, which would see some 43 dead and more than 460 injured.
The call for peaceful march came after last week's deadly festivities which rocked Tripoli. The fighting was triggered by the death of the brigade based in Gharghour, a few days after he was injured during an argument at a checkpoint argument.
