Ukraine allegedly using Libyan base against Russia
The article addresses the increasing political and security concerns in Libya regarding reports of a military base in Misrata being used as a launch point for military operations against Russian ships linked to the Russian shadow fleet, within the context of the Moscow-Ukraine conflict. The Libyan Ministry of Defense denied the accuracy of these reports, emphasizing that the country has not granted any party permission to use its territory for hostile purposes against other states. Sources indicate that certain groups and individuals are benefiting from the current situation by operating on the black arms market, while fears persist about Libya’s potential involvement in the Russia-Ukraine confrontation. Additionally, allegations that a Russian gas tanker was attacked by drones in Libya in March 2023 remain questionable, with officials confirming that the motives behind these attacks are unclear. The ministry underscores Libya’s sovereignty and its rejection of the use of its land for military actions outside national boundaries, with prevailing indications that there is no conclusive evidence that those drones originated from Libya.
