Install the return of the ultimate fighting championship its a bump as one of its fighters test positive for corona virus but the comeback event in florida still goes ahead behind closed doors. We begin in libya where forces loyal to war also before have to have 5 at least 80 rockets into tripolis only functioning airport its believed a civilian plane on the tarmac of airport was hit one person has been killed after us forces had targeted some residential areas in the capital close to the turkish and italian embassies. In this story lets bring in Mahmoud Abdulla why have you in tripoli a man who weve seen over the last few days half the forces intensifying shelling on the airport and civilian areas on embassies are they advancing towards the capital. Will they are not advancing at all. In fact they have been losing ground but the attack on a matey get airport today as if you can see behind me the this mark is still rising from airport many people here attribute it to their leaders to defeat that house that his forces suffer the specially of that of the last strategic cities and towns in the west of the libyan all sort of all attacks by the Government Air force on the woods yet aid bees have those forces stronghold close to the tunisian border is now Security Forces here say that they have called on the area to prevent civilians. Mainly the highway the coastal way that links the city center to the may to get airport is now blocked is trying to prevent civilians from coming closer to the because because of possible for their attacks by have to his forces meanwhile authorities in America Air Force to have told us that 2 airliners have been damaged one of them was set on fire. That belongs to Libyan Airlines and it was due to fly to spain to bring back the libyans stranded there due to 19 prevention measures and meanwhile the authorities also tell us that there were many foreigners european from European Countries there were also supposed to fly on that Airline Others to travel back to their countries their situation remains very tense inside and in the vicinity of m 80 gear but as you can see the smoke is still rising and the. Oil Marketing Company thats. Part of this state owned Oil Corporation posted that one of its jet fuel tanks inside was also damaged and set on fire because of the explosions caused by the multiple rocket attacks this attack comes only 2 days after it helped us force that attack on the vicinity of the turkish and italian embassies in the city center many people here are angry especially the civilians hold live nearby they may to get airport they say that they have been calling on the International Community to put pressure on have to us forces to refrain from targeting it civilian areas civilian facilities and residential areas but it seems that so far have the forces have not been responding to these calls or thanks so much for mahmoud. Or ward cleaver half has been trying to take control of the capital for more than a year but as the terms have been repelled the u. N. Recognized government based in tripoli is led by Prime Minister face a sort of large size the u. N. His administration has diplomatic support from italy and other western nations turkey recently sent military reinforcements have those power bases the government in Eastern Libya hes supported by saudi arabia the u. A. E. Russia and egypt france denies providing military backing nor for the buddha is the executive director of the Nordic Center for conflict transformation he joins us by skype from robots in morocco good to have you with us so recently weve seen half of those forces particularly focus on a lot of civilian infrastructure why. Well 1st of all we expected that after senate after the massive loss that he scored recently he wanted to do that for 2 main reasons one is to show that he stayed there for his followers of the few followers that hes losing and now there are. Converting to also torture actually degenerate and the 2nd reason for him to do it to is to show for his and for the country that to do theyre supporting him that he stayed there and he can do things so dont like. Mahmoud said they did is no a plan or tactics for him hes just trying to show that is still there unfortunately he choose this period of time to do it its around a down its people that hes a pandemic and most of the people are in their houses and hes descending rockets up in iraq its on their heads i dont think this is sustainable for him he realizes that he opened a bank and there are a war and he can or cant control it so for him in my opinion that i mean maybe indicators by which and he can say that what hes doing is this is not sustainable 1st in terms of tactics he doesnt seem to have a very solid one has to rely more and more on mercenaries that are actually courting it by russia and the private company wanted to bring what do you need missionaries into the war more than 1200 mercenaries are added to the existing mercenary the u. N. Reports regarding that it war are not sustainably won by neither be sustainable by missionaries the 2nd point that i would like to raise is that he can no longer want to invade his the people that is fighting with him we have seen that locals are actually dont want to support the d. N. A. The u. S. Backed government under me he doesnt seem to be able to beat people in libya. Contextualize his moves and also read the d. N. A. Statics. Has the tide changed it off for one side to defeat the other no i dont doubt but i still think that the. Un backed government of the d. N. A. And has more now support of the people than before and this is a very major 6 another point that i would like to read and its very important and we dont talk about it too much is the role of the us i believe that the un has wasted so much time when after the resignation of the un envoy to sense a landmark. There and they had the opportunity to nominate a new mediator who can actually bring a problem solving to the conflict. In a peaceful manner a mediator and that is actually supported by all the parties and if you want what what had happened is that you then do when presented somebody who we knew that hes not going to be able to be supported by everyone into the conflict if the former minister of Foreign Affairs on the jury that saddam hour will serve this country as minister for an affair from 2008 to 2013 we know that on geria its border in libya and we might even consider say that in libya isnt it a concern are to enter the conflict in with stakes in the conflict in a. More precisely so i did a serious thing that this is not reversing the war is not reverting to one side or another we knew war is dark and there are a boxes and there are a lot of things that we can no longer control when there are triggered we expected the retaliation after unfortunately this retaliation against all the standards of International Law by targeting civilians we thank you for your analysis.
