By Spy Uganda

Warlords in Libya have resolved to wage war against all foreign forces in the wartorn country.

The declaration was revealed on Friday by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar of the Libyan National Army (LNA), who announced earlier the beginning of a decisive battle in his campaign to capture Tripoli, which has been underway since last April and has resulted in fierce fighting on the outskirts of the Libyan capital.

In a newly-released statement, Haftar declared a general mobilization as a measure to resist foreign intervention. The LNA commander ordered the arming of all men and women, military personnel and civilians.

“Today, we are declaring the jihad and general mobilization. Men and women, officers and civilians will be provided with weapons”, the LNA commander said in a televised address.

The Turkish parliament greenlighted on Thursday President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s initiative to send military reinforcements to Libyan allies who have been under siege since April 2019 by the eastern-based army of Khalifa Haftar on soil which was a part of the Ottoman Empire until 1911.

After the ouster and brutal murder of then-Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, the country was plunged into a brutal civil war, which turned the nation into a territory divided between two centres of power – an elected parliament in the country’s east, supported by Haftar’s forces and the UN-backed GNA in the west.

Now Haftar wants the UN-backed GNA forces decimated, a ploy he hopes will grant him and his army full control of Libya, a move that is bound to plunge the country into fully blown war.
