Fatal drone strike in Tarhuna, Libya

Three members of Libya’s eastern force, including two commanders, were killed late on Friday in a drone strike on Tarhuna city by the internationally recognised government of national accord (GNA), a military source said.

GNA’s media office confirmed the strike and said “it [the strike] targeted a control vehicle in Tarhuna.”

Tarhuna, some 97.6 km southeast of Tripoli, is a hub allied to commander Khalifa Haftar’s Libyan National Army (LNA).

“Two commanders of LNA’s ninth brigade and their assistant were killed in a drone strike,” the military source said.
