Today we suggest to you to read an interesting article published on the Guardian site and wrote by Jason Burke and Patrick Wintour (you can read the article here: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/11/suspected-military-supplies-libya-un-cargo?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other ):

“International powers are increasing deliveries of suspected military supplies to factions in Libya’s civil war, ignoring a poorly enforced UN embargo as the shattered country braces for a new round of fighting.

The United Arab Emirates, which is backing Khalifa Haftar, the warlord commander of the self-styled Libyan National Army, is thought to have sent more than 100 deliveries by air since mid-January, according to flight-tracking data. (…)”

In the past we’ve tracked different times suspicious flights from UAE to eastern Libya ( you can see an example below ).

The flights are made by civilian Ilyushin Il-76 cargo aircraft but we’ve tracked also flights operated by United Arab Emirates Air Force Boeing C-17A “Globemaster” (see an example here).

The Guardian mentions in the article a post published in our site, this one: https://www.itamilradar.com/2020/02/15/uae-benghazi-airlift-continues/

In these days the flights are still operating.
