Following some alarmism appeared on the net about phantom rains missiles on Sicily by ISIS we feel obliged to deny this possibility, unfortunately revived by newspapers are very popular in our country; report a "confirms a suspicion" of the genre can generate fear and fear among the population as well as rekindle old feelings in veterans dormant.
LIBIA Il braccio dell’ISIS in Libia ha rivendicato il sequestro di 21 cristiani copti egiziani provenienti dal governorato di Minya.Il gruppo jihadista ha inoltre diffuso delle foto degli ostaggi, come riportato da Site Intelligence Group. I 21 cristiani, secondo quanto riferito dall’Is, sarebbero stati catturati nello Stato di Tripoli a capodanno. Si aggravano le condizioni di vita dei cristiani in Libia dalla caduta di Gheddafi nel 2011, numerosi gruppi jihadisti presenti nel Paese hanno più volte colpito famiglie cristiane su tutto il territorio. Non si hanno notizie dei due giornalisti tunisini Nadhir Ktari e Sofien Chourabi sequestrati l’8 gennaio da militanti dell’Is, secondo indiscrezioni i due sarebbero ancora vivi. Intanto nel pomeriggio dell’11 gennaio l’aviazione libica ha bombardato obiettivi militari appartenenti alla coalizione Fajr Libya.
The Libyan internal divisions are increasingly reflected on the main power centres. As expected, the political and commercial interests follow routes laid down by ethnic, religious and tribal fragmentation fueling persistent struggles for the hoarding of resources and the division of power. Today Libya is basically divided into two major blocs, one of which (the islamist bloc) is composed of the forces engaged in the Opertion Dawn, The General National Congress (GNC) and other militias from the city of Misurata, in the north-west of country.
The civil war in Libya devours a clash total now difficult to reconstruct. On the one hand the militias of Misrata other educated and bourgeois historians rival Zintan: men of Misurata allied with the moderate Islamists have taken the last night the airport of Tripoli putting a mortgage on the strong control of the Libyan government and what which is now in a state of decay.
Signs of serious deterioration in the security environment in the Libyan capital have strongly emerged in the first week of November when on November 5, two people, including a militia commander al-Nassour, were killed in a gun battle between the militia Nassour and the militia of al-Souq al Juma district of Tripoli where the clashes took place.
We can consider the attack in recent days against the French Embassy in Tripoli as the first terrorist attack against foreign interests in Libya.
The attack marked the escalation of the war that is being fought between the government and the militias jiadiste to determine the future direction, and the quality of institutions.
This radicalization of the conflict and the attack on the French embassy, should serve as a wake-up call in order to avoid nullifying the results achieved thanks to NATO intervention.
Tuesday, April 23 car bomb devastated the French embassy in Tripoli, injuring two French guards, is the first major attack against Western targets after what cost him his life last September, at the hands of jihadists U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens.
Tripoli and across Libya after it was toppled the Gaddafi regime have been flooded with weapons and violent armed gangs roam there.
