A report by the Lebanese newspaper, Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, revealed that Khalifa Haftar ordered his troops to mobilize in order to engage in a huge battle and military operation against what he describes as “militias” that attacked Brak Al-Shati last
Thursday.

According to the newspaper, Libya is going into a wave of new military conflicts in the southern region between the self-proclaimed army of Haftar and what it described as militias of Government of National Accord, led by Fayez Al-Serraj.

The source also added that Operation Dignity forces will carry out the biggest attack ever as a retaliation for the latest attack of the Third Force on Brak Al-Shati.
