The United States can transfer military equipment to Libya in order to achieve its interests, EDNews.net reports citing RIO Novisti.
He [the source – ed.] said that American military transport planes regularly fly from the German Ramstein base to the cities of Tripoli and Misurata in the west of the country. According to the source, Washington is trying to push the parties to the Libyan conflict to continue military operations.
The interlocutor of the news agency suspects that the goods that the US side is moving to the west of Libya are military in nature. Their distribution will probably be handled by a special unit of the African Command of the US Armed Forces (USAFRICOM), which is located near the border with Tunisia.
On June 17, USAFRICOM announced that on the side of the Libyan National Army (LNA), Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, two thousand fighters of Wagner’s private military company are fighting. They allegedly participated in all hostilities during the 14-month offensive in Tripoli.
PMC Wagner – an unofficial armed group, which is associated with St. Petersburg businessman Eugene Prigozhin. His mercenaries are believed to provide security services in several African countries. According to some reports, they also took part in the hostilities in Donbass, Syria and went to Sudan to support President Omar al-Bashir.
