Accounts in Libya circulated through social networking sites, videos and pictures, which showed the passage of large numbers of camels through the most vital and main roads in the capital, Tripoli, specifically from the Shatt road, passing by the highway, and towards the city of Zawia, west of Tripoli, at 45 km.

Activists said that a shipment of camels, estimated at three thousand, was present in the Tripoli sea port, and after the forces of retired Major General Khalifa Haftar bombed the port last Tuesday, a camel importer in coordination with the security authorities at dawn on Wednesday urgently evacuated the port, in order to preserve its safety towards a city Corner on foot, which surprised many.
