The conflict in Libya seems to be getting tougher day by day. The bombings of the last few hours I am a clear demonstration: the civilian victims caused by the missiles rained on Tripoli, for whose responsibilities we are now also witnessing a mutual exchange of accusations between the parties involved, testify to the intensity reached by a battle now entering its second week. And Haftar's finger pointing towards Turkey also adds to the controversy, with Ankara accused of introducing weapons from outside for the most extremist militiamen.

Ahmed Al Mismari's accusations

Just like reported by the site AddressLibya, during a press conference held on Tuesday evening in Benghazi, the LNA spokesperson, Ahmed Al-Mismari, calls Turkey explicitly and rather heavily into question. According to the leaders of Haftar's army, in particular, President Erdogan's government is currently financing and donating weapons to the militias that have remained loyal to Al Sarraj's government. Al Mismari specifies that Ankara is supporting in particular those deemed militias, within the galaxy of forces currently engaged in the defense of Tripoli, the most extremist. The weapons, according to the LNA spokesperson, they arrive in Libya via the port of Zura, locality near the Tunisian border along the coast in the hands of groups loyal to the Tripoli executive. Despite the fact that between this town and the capital a large part of the territory is in the hands of Haftar's army, the weapons would still be able to reach the hands of Al Sarraj's forces.
“More Turkish weapons are arriving at the Islamist militias fighting alongside the forces of Prime Minister Fayez al Sarraj's Government of National Accord – explains Al Mismari – These are foreign interference in Libya”. The reference is to what was revealed in recent days by Turkish CNN, which specifies that two Ankara warships left the ports of Mersin and Marmaris, they are now close to Libyan waters. Actually, explains the report from the Turkish channel of the Atlanta network, the ships in question would be in the Mediterranean for an anti-drug operation conducted in recent days. But in Benghazi they are convinced it is Erdogan's "signature" on support for Al Sarraj and fundamentalist groups. Türkiye and Qatar are the main financiers of the Muslim Brothers, a formation that is well present and very influential within Al Sarraj's government. Hence the support, complete with supplies of weapons and ammunition, secured from Ankara to Tripoli.
From your side, the Turkish government denies it and does so through the mouth of Omer Faruk Dogan, Ankara's ambassador to Tunis: “Al Mismari's are just lies – the diplomat cuts short, as AgenziaNova reports – All this does not help the peace and stability of the region. We are for a diplomatic solution in Libya".

The situation on the field

Verbal clashes that extend from the actors on the field to their respective international sponsors. All this demonstrates the fact that, at least for the moment, there appears to be no interest in starting serious diplomatic discussions. Not just Haftar's accusations against Türkiye, in the last few hours there have been several episodes that demonstrate a deterioration of the situation on the field: the bombings on Tripoli, with mutual accusations between Al Sarraj's forces and those of Haftar, the detention for several hours of thirteen French people on the border between Tunisia and Libya, the alarms raised about migrants and the risk of terrorism, It is easy to understand how Libya is increasingly a powder keg.
Meanwhile, the front appears decidedly stationary. Everything turns out, in particular, stuck at approx 20 kilometers south of Tripoli: the forces loyal to Al Sarraj hold on but are unable to advance, Haftar's forces advance but fail to break through. Hence the stalemate that generates various tensions and nervousness, increasingly difficult to stem. The battle for Tripoli is now an all-out war, fought on both a military, media and political level.
