Libyan army dismantles over 3,800 landmines in Benghazi

TRIPOLI, June 21 (Xinhua) -- The Libyan army has dismantled over 3,800 landmines in central Benghazi, said its media office on Wednesday.
The office added that the army forces continued targeting terrorist group sites with heavy artillery in Al-Sabri and Suq Al-Hut in central Benghazi.
The eastern city of Benghazi, Libya's second largest city and the birthplace of the 2011 uprising that toppled former leader Muammar Gaddafi's regime, has been witnessing violent war between armed forces led by General Khalifa Haftar and militant groups for more than three years.
The army controls most of Benghazi, except for small areas in central of the city, where the remaining militants are stationed.
Haftar's forces also control major oil ports in eastern Libya, as well as most of the south after defeating armed militias.
The army's media office revealed that the army is working secretly against the armed groups in the city. The use of land mines prevents the army from taking over the remaining militant sites in Benghazi, the office added.
Libya has been suffering escalating violence and chaos since the fall of Gaddafi's regime in 2011. The North African country is plagued with insecurity and political division.

HUMANITARIAN SUPPORT: NAF AIRLIFTS DONATED FOOD ITEMS TO MAIDUGURI

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has airlifted 4,000 cartons of Indomie Noodles to Maiduguiri ahead of its plans to ensure that the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the North East benefit maximally from the donated items. The Indomie Noodles, worth over 10 million Naira, were recently donated by Tolaram Africa Enterprise, in recognition of the remarkable support and intervention of the NAF to the IDPs, especially in the area of nutritional needs. It is worthy of note that, in addition to the current NAF healthcare delivery programme at the IDP camps in Bama and Dalori, the NAF has instituted an arrangement whereby malnourished children in the IDP camps are being nurtured via a special diet programme. The NAF medical personnel would use the donated noodles to provide feeding to patients, especially children at its Emergency Hospitals for IDPs at Bama and Dalori Camps, where many amazing recoveries of previously malnourished children had already been witnessed.

It is recalled that, while receiving the donated items on behalf of the NAF, the Chief of Policy and Plans, Air Vice Marshal James Gbum, who represented the CAS at the occasion, had promised that the NAF would immediately convey the items to the beneficiaries.

Lasa wen dey blind [/quote]Am proud of these 5 mins video, nice documentation on life of a soldier in the front line and what they face. @fynline I like the "music word"../
the " lasa wen dey blind" : I think the soldier RSM meant the lasa instead of laser beam can't be seeing with a naked eye. and these little equipment goes a long way during fire fight superiority with the enemy. and I think not only SF soldiers should be equipped with such . our infantry soldiers should be equipped at least 20-30 at every plantoon level, I pray we will get there.

Libyan Air Force receives four new Su-27 fighter jets


The Libyan Air Force has reportedly taken delivery of four new Russian-made Su-27 Flanker fighter aircraft from an undisclosed country.
An unnamed Libyan official was quoted by official pro HoR LANA news agency as saying that informed military sources in the Libyan National Army (LNA) confirmed on 5 January that four new Sukhoi fighter jets effectively joined the squadrons of the Libyan Air Force.
The aircraft are capable of covering a distance of 3,530km with a maximum speed of 2,500kph. It is also claimed they are capable of staying airborne for a long duration, and can manoeuvre and re-attack up to three times.
They are expected to augment LNA's capabilities in the fight against extremist and terrorist militias across the country.
As Libya is not listed as an official buyer of the Sukhoi Su-27, it is believed to have acquired second-hand or refurbished fighters from other countries.
However, the LNA did not disclose whether the jets were new, or loaned from neighbouring states or allies, or an addition of upgraded old aircraft to the existing Air Force squadrons.
Meanwhile, Libya Herald reported that there is no independent confirmation of the delivery of the fighters.
"The new Su-27 fighter jets are expected to augment LNA's capabilities in the fight against extremist and terrorist militias across the country."
The delivery comes as the Libyan Armed Forces pledge to intensify airstrikes on all vital infrastructure in the city of Misrata.
General Khalifa Haftar spokesman colonel Mohamed Hejazy was quoted by the Financial Times as saying: "Misurata's ports are used to transfer terrorist and extremist elements, whether Libyan or foreign.
"Misurata is the most dangerous threat to the Libyan state today.
"Therefore, all institutions in Misurata, whether its ports or airport, constitute threats against Libyans."
According to Libya Herald, the Libyan Air Force already threatened to shoot down any Sudanese or Turkish Military or civilian aircraft that enters its airspace.
This warning came a day after bombing a Greek-operated oil tanker, killing two crew members
