@Dellen010101 Yes, the ⚽ riots are somewhat pointless even when viewed in with the detrimental role of Al-Ithad et. al. in the patriotic struggle for independence from the British military administration in the late 40s. But the demographic issue is anything but that, at least for the public.
East Asian contractors of the UNSMIL brandishing their rifles behind bulletproof glass of their watchtowers. Again, nothing will happen but the continuation of the treatment of the public like a senseless toddler will -eventually- lead to senseless acts.
مواطن يتفاجأ بظهور عناصر مسلحة في أبراج المراقبة التابعة لمقر البعثة الأممية، وآخرين يرتدون القبعات الزرقاء، تزامناً مع المظاهرة الشعبية السلمية أمام مقرها في جنزور، الرافضة لمشروع التوطين.
They are foreign nationals employed by a different nation serving an international entity on a third different nation, the term mercenaries here is an understatement.
Yes the caption is inaccurate, they are southeast/subcontinental Asians not east Asians. And they are technically subcontracted mercenaries not even fully contracted. As for the overt glazing, their last real engagement was in WWII (except for a few parties in 🇽🇰 & 🇦🇫), so...
This is not accurate. these are not contractors,they are the Nepalese United Nations Guards Units , they are one of the toughest ,most humble ,professional fighting units i had the pleasure to work and briefly trained (until a Lebanese fuckface asked otherwise) with them.
📍32°50'22.76"N 13°01'12.67"E Protesters [maintaining the peaceful outlook] have breached the outer security perimeter and are now one fence away from actual @UNSMILibya 's facilities marked "UN"
#جنزور_حصري_الان من مقر البعثة بطرابلس #ليبيا
@cochetel Perhaps it is less about skin colour and more about whatever racket is being run on Libyan soil without the knowledge of the public:
📍32°50'24.51"N 13°01'27.46"E One gate down, 5 more and 400meters to go: Forecast: nothing will happen.
🔴عاجل | بعد اغلاقهم مقر مفوضية اللاجئين في السراج .. المتظاهرون السلميون ينتقلون إلى مقر بعثة الأمم المتحدة في جنزور و يدخلون مقرها مطالبين بخروجها من البلاد فورًا. #libya
5, not 3! A bit unusual but nothing extraordinary. 4 of them were civilian S&R aircraft operated by NGOs [ like @seawatch_intl] And another @ItalianAirForce 's ATR-72A Interestingly 3 of them were extensively circling an area of interest 70 nautical miles northeast of Tripoli.
تحليق متزامن لثلاث طائرات استطلاع قبالة السواحل الليبية.
@LibyanXIV Again, the original point is that these are NOT the same trans-Sahara illegal migrants [like the Sudanese refugees who are actually in need of humanitarian efforts], but rather well-off individuals who can clearly afford a few thousands USD multi-Transit flight tickets.
Most of these refugees arrive in Mitiga Tripoli after transiting Cairo coming from Adis Ababa/Nairobi/Mogadishu Which raises the question of what sense does it make to pick the least stable capital of the aforementioned as a processing station for the Emergency Transit Mechanism?
غادر 124 لاجئًا ليبيا إلى إيطاليا عبر مسارات آمنة ومنظمة، بتيسير من السلطات الليبية وحكومة إيطاليا. لا يمكن تحقيق الحلول للاجئين إلا من خلال التعاون الدولي وتقاسم المسؤولية. شكراً 🙏🇮🇹 @ItalyinLibya و #RDPPNA للمساعدة في جعل هذه الحلول ممكنة.
@LibyanXIV And yes, airport/visa authorities in Benghazi much like in Tripoli are either turning a blind eye or complicit in this operation.
@LibyanXIV It's all over their social media, this is not a humanitarian corridor, but an industrial level pipeline
Cairo isn't the only transit though, Istanbul is also a very common transit stop instead of Cairo in their route to Tripoli, here is an instance out of thousands: vt.tiktok.com/ZSxE9Rbsm/
The document is dated May 17th (a week ago) and has multiple spelling errors, there's a high likelihood that it isn't authentic.
An unverified document circulating online regarding the container spotted earlier leaving the @UNHCRLibya 's compound in Tripoli:
📍32°50'07.44"N 13°03'53.13"E Can't confirm the caption but the location is indeed the [eastern] side gate of the @UNHCRLibya 's compound in Tripoli.
@MTailamun That being the absurd influx of "refugees" from the horn of Africa, [namely 🇸🇴🇪🇷🇪🇹], a simple scroll on SM sites with "Somalia to Libya" in the search bar will absolutely change anyone's perspective on the matter. Tripoli has become a "demographic waiting room" for the ETM.
@MTailamun The politically correctness often prevents one from noticing patterns that would get you shunned once you point it out. The UN, much like the LAAF or other actors in Libya are addressing the concerns regarding the illegal immigrants, and fail to pick up on the real trigger.
📍32°50'07.44"N 13°03'53.13"E Can't confirm the caption but the location is indeed the [eastern] side gate of the @UNHCRLibya 's compound in Tripoli.
With a notable increase in endurance/resilience, payload capacity, sensor options (thermal & LRF), and double the range can easily explain the rise in the patrols interception success rates.
The 173rd Brgd appears to have upgraded from commercial DJI Mavic drones to the DJI Matrice 300/350 RTK. Not a dedicated military UAV, but a significant step up in ISR capabilities and a practical middle ground between small commercial quadcopters and larger recon UAVs.
On the recent LAAF unit rotations on the southern frontier: • 1st Battalion, 173rd CDO Brigade (Ubari) relieving the 163rd SF Sai'qa Battalion in the Salvador 🔺 • 628th Battalion, 18th Infantry Brigade (Murzuq) relieving the 402nd Battalion on the Salvador pass
