6:02 pm
after a ceasefire between allies of the country's rival governments. let's go live now to tripoli. i'll just here as manic. trina is that for us. tell us more about how this violence began in the early hours of saturday. or adrian, like you said, these are rival militias that are loyal and affiliated to the 2 governments in libya. libya currently has the internationally recognized government here in tripoli, and they nether parallel government, which was appointed by eastern officials, led by that's the bush. now we've been seeing this build up occurring for the last couple of weeks. the u. s. the un all were said, saying that they were deeply concerned with this military bid build up and the threat of violence. and yesterday skirmishes between these rival militias began an escalated quite quickly. so we've been seeing clashes erupting across
6:03 pm
tripoli. here in the center of tripoli also to the west. now we're, we're hearing reports of forces law affiliated with betsy bush on the pillow government. moving in towards tripoli. there's also another convoy building up around miss ross, that's about 200 kilometers. if i'm tripoli heading this way, so really, people are extremely terrified and scared that this could be a full skill conflict. we spoke to health officials just a little while ago. 7 killed so far, at least $31.00 injured. and that number may increase because there are dozens of families stuck without a core door to safely get out of these areas where classes are happening. what is the situation now of the trashes ongoing? what's that? what's burning that we can see in the pictures?
6:04 pm
i think it's, it was behind you earlier. i could see it. yeah, it was a supermarket in the area of jamalia the street, the jamalia street. in the center of tripoli. i mean, we've been hearing the echoes of heavy artillery a hitting heavily, heavily dense populated area. so really it's a sad, fortunate, or event. and libyans are extremely tired of both of both governments of both of all the political officials. they want to see elections happen. and these politicians out of office are really extremely people are extremely frustrated, extremely fed up with, with what is happening, and the lives and destruction there are being cause are by these rival factions. not 0. my trainer reporting live there from libby as capital tripoli. many thanks, did malick or the un mission in libya has called for an immediate stop to the fighting, tweeting that it's deeply concerned about. ongoing aren't crashes,
6:05 pm
including indiscriminate, medium and heavy shilling. in civilian populated neighborhoods in tripoli, reportedly causing civilian casualties and damage to civilian facilities, including hospitals. the british embassy in libya has treated as well calling for an immediate end to violence in tripoli, saying that it condemns any attempts to take or maintain power through force. and that the protection of civilians is paramount. that spring in us l. kemati, who is the founder and director of the static institute, the 1st public policy think tank in libya. he joins us now live from istanbul, could tele with us on us. how dangerous a moment is this for libya? incredibly dangerous because it's the opening hours of a conflict like this, where the rival actors on the ground are stress testing the international community . they want to know the result of those international powers through today a sweet thing. and that should be the gravity of that word and that sweet thing
6:06 pm
when they should be cooling individuals responsible for this attack and try to not only reprimand i'm but threatened them with sanctions because we know that sanctions work. but sanctions have been off the table since 2019, and we know that what happened last time, it came also between tweets the highest level attorney terrorism trip last on the un chief and he treated his well and we saw an episode of violence that today we still see interpretable really from those scars. so that just word picture here. there are mass graves kilometers away from tripping while women and children are being pulled up from of them being pulled up from the ground. after 3 years of conflict, nobody wants to see that happen again. and tweets are not going to stop that. phone calls are the highest level. and then i have, you know, that i need to treat them. they have the phone numbers, they can call them, and they can stop that. but we've seen that phone before. and today that most of the officers aspect of the world's bandwidth is not being consumed by ukraine. the
6:07 pm
un security council bandwidth of being consumed by your claim. we're not going to get any un security council resolutions. so what do we need? we need the u. s. the u. k. and franks, the key members of the p 3 to be able to make phone calls on my senior level and not sweet from the embassies, but make phone calls to threaten them with fractions from the governments. i don't know whether or not it's going to happen, but that's what needs to happen to stop this from escalating because these find out the stress 2 hours ago. and it could be the difference between a skirmish and a full blown civil war, as well as your journalist was, was reporting there was a build up around the south west the capital, and that spells full blown civil war. and as you said, the world's attention has been diverted by ukraine just for the benefit of anyone who isn't aware of what's actually going on right now in libya. just explain who's fighting, who here and why there was mentioned actually recognize government and tripoli that was appointed in december. so much 2021 was supposed to be
6:08 pm
a custodian to elections that we didn't get to the elections failed for number of all of the rival parties themselves were trying to intimate spoiling but the conditions on the ground particular the constitutional basis. so what govern the rules of again, what kind of countries that they're going to be? what kind of powers are the elected president we should have elected and elected parliament supposed to have. we never got the constitutional basis that has been locked by the very same individuals that were responsible for the last war. and i responsible for the election and they're responsible for attacking the capital. so this rival prime minister appoints a government of national stability is so eager to grasp power, so they have nothing convoys the triple causing internal fisher within the capitol . so again, we've seen that before to make it more complicated just libyans fighting. there are rival, for forces on the ground. turkey has it's for forces that are deployed after an agreement that it had with the former government of national court and 2019. they
6:09 pm
all opened their tripoli with the edit fences and with that military forces. we also have russian rest, some that have trained in libya and gone to ukraine over the last several months. but some that are not veterans of a previous war where they assassinated the civilian population of tripoli and they are that to be deployed. and after a year of trying to get them out of the country, we have seen that they might be mobilizing to move in such a play and nothing is off the table right now. there are 4 or 4 on the ground that are eager to try and see a 2nd opportunity in a 2nd window. like capturing the capitol by force. the very same actors that are responsible for literally keeping libya or tripoli in crime scene. every way you go or scores, a brutal, brutal, lead violence company against a civilian population of the capital. they are recycling and rebranding themselves for another turn. and that's where this is. so for this that because we're not talking about new names, we're the acronyms government. a blush record government of national in the governor matches the better. but the very same actors,
6:10 pm
though responsible for at least a decade of waging war on the capital and across the country. and littering himself with crime seems like a wherever you go. and with and with the crime i'm investigation, the international criminal court was looking at many of the same actors. they are now having a 2nd turn. i literally in a bringing a plague of a war, but to the capitol as though it is, it's a disaster. it's a disaster for international that limits in the disaster for the capitol. and as many thanks and 8, and i sell them out there in a stumble that send to flood devastated pakistan when millions of people will spend another night worrying about what lies ahead. half the country is under water. forcing the government to announce a national emergency, nearly a 1000 people are dead. millions more. a displaced, prime minister shall sharif, has been assuring people in sind province of help, and assessing what aid has so far come their way. but for many in the impoverished baluchistan province, which has been cut off sheriff's words mean little as they struggle to come to
