On 13th April the Italian Navy ship Gorgona (A5347) left Tripoli moving to the limit of Libyan territorial waters as precaution after that  an artillery shell hit the interior of the Abu Sitta naval base in Tripoli, about 250 meters from the ship.

In a tweet of Italian journalist Sergio Scandura posted on 15th of April we can see the Italian unit again in the Tripoli harbor so we can suppose that the Italian ship is again  at anchor in the Abu Sitta naval base.

“Gorgona” works as technical support to Libyan Navy units.
