27 killed, 106 injured in violence in Libya's capital Tripoli

Nothing can be said about when and where violence will break out in the world. Something similar was also seen in Tripoli, the capital of Libya. Violence broke out between two groups in Tripoli late on Monday. Both the groups had weapons and due to this, the violence took a gruesome form on Tuesday. The violence took place between the Special Deterrence Force of Libya and the 444 Brigade. Both forces are among the most powerful military forces in Libya. However, the ongoing violence between the two sides has now stopped.

In Tripoli, 27 people died due to violence between the Special Deterrence Force and the 444 Brigade. Also, 106 people got injured due to this. The Emergency Medical Center of Tripoli informed me about this.

Dangerous weapons were used in this violence in different parts of the city throughout the day on Tuesday. This also caused damage to public property.

A decision by the Special Deterrence Force became the reason for the violence. In fact, they detained the commander of the 444 Brigade, Mahmoud Hamza, at the main Mitiga airport in Tripoli. Due to this violence broke out in both forces. The violence also stopped only after Hamza was released.
