Freighters operating in Libya could be shot down without warning, as the two opposing powers in the country each claim they are delivering weapons to the other’s fighters, fuelling the current conflict, reports The Loadstar.com
Most commercial carriers stopped flying to Libya after fighting broke out at Tripoli International Airport in July. Turkish Airlines is the only international airline officially operating cargo charters to Libya, with Libyan company Global Aviation operating weekly flights from Europe and Aqaba. Both fly to Misrata, while Global also goes to Tripoli’s Mitiga.
Both airports are controlled by Libya Dawn. Other cargo charter flights are also flying into Libya but it is not clear who operates them, reports The Loadstar.
