An airstrike, reportedly a UAE drone, carried out by Khalifa Haftar’s Air Force killed three civilians as it targeted a car in Sawani in the suburbs of Tripoli.

The airstrike hit the civilian car on Saturday morning and left the area of the attack with massive damage, in addition to the three deaths.

Haftar’s forces have been using UAE’s airpower since April 04, when they launched an attack on Tripoli, in attacking Mitiga Airport, Misrata Air College and Airport as well as other civilian properties and residential areas in and around Tripoli.
