Al-Jazeera correspondent in Libya, citing sources, said that a warplane targeted locations inside the Al-Wattia military base of the National Accord government in the west of the country, while Turkey pledged to help the reconciliation forces build a "professional" army.

The reporter said - quoting sources described as official - that the bombing resulted in damage to the air defense system, but without any casualties.

The Al-Wefaq government has not commented on the attack, which is the first of its kind since its forces took control of the western region.

Building a professional army
On the other hand, the Turkish Ministry of Defense and its counterpart in the Government of Accord agreed to expand the scope of military cooperation by building training centers to establish a "Libyan professional army" during a visit to Libya by the Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar and his chief of staff, Yasar Guler.

"We stand with our Libyan brothers in accordance with what is provided for in international law and justice, and we will not retreat from this position," the Turkish minister said.

On the mass graves recently discovered by Al-Wefaq forces south of Tripoli and in and around the city of Tarhuna, Akar described them as crimes against humanity.

The Turkish Minister of Defense expressed his pride in his country's soldiers in Leba for performing their duties "in an honorable manner."

Then the guest minister, accompanied by his chief of staff, visited the Maitika military hospital, where he was briefed on the situation by officials and the Turkish medical team working in the hospital.

Regarding allegations of a Turkish ship harassing a French ship off the coast of Libya in the Mediterranean, Akar reiterated that his country had provided the NATO partners with all the documents and photos that refute the Paris claims that did not provide any evidence of its allegations.

This is "a plot intended to achieve political rather than military ends, and France should apologize to Turkey," Akar said, stressing that NATO continues to maintain the most reliable and deterrent alliance in the world.

Students of the Military College to Turkey
On the other hand, the Libyan army, affiliated with Al-Wefaq Forces, announced on Saturday that "190 students of the Military College in Tripoli, who were studying with them during the bombing of the militia of the revolutionary General Khalifa Haftar to them earlier this year, left for Turkey to complete their studies."

This came on the tongue of Brigadier Pilot Saeed Al-Malti, a spokesman for the Military College, according to the Facebook page of the "Barkan Rage" operation of the Al-Wefaq government army on Facebook.

Malty said, "The batch of the newer (at the beginning of their studies) and the advanced (years of schooling) - which were targeted by Haftar’s flight during their training at the college early this year - left Friday to Turkey to complete their studies in one of the military colleges there (he did not mention it)."

He also clarified that "the newbie batch includes 25 students, and their study will take 22 months, while the batch of the applicant includes 165 students, and their study will take five months."

Haftar mines hit civilians
Despite the removal of Haftar forces several weeks ago from the outskirts of Tripoli and the western region in general, the mines that were planted in residential neighborhoods still kill many civilians, as two civilians were wounded by a landmine explosion in a residential neighborhood in Ain Zara, south of the capital, which was stationed It includes gunmen from the Russian company Wagner, during the Haftar forces attack on the city, which lasted for more than a year.

The neighborhoods and residential areas south of Tripoli witnessed many incidents of mine explosion that claimed the lives of military personnel specialized in mine clearance operations, in addition to a number of civilians who were displaced from their homes and then returned to them after the Al-Wefaq government took control of those areas.

British concern
On the other hand, Britain expressed concern about the continued closure of oil ports in Libya, and reports of foreign interference in Libyan oil fields.

The British embassy there in a statement referred to reports it described as disturbing about the interference of foreign mercenaries in the Sharara oil field southwest of Libya, which it considered undermining the efforts of a political solution, adding that the militarization of the Libyan energy sector is an unacceptable political bargaining.

London confirmed its support to the National Oil Corporation of Libya as the only independent institution in the country mandated to manage energy resources, and demanded that it be allowed to resume production "without hindrance to the benefit of all Libyans."

It also called on the parties to the Libyan crisis to participate actively in the United Nations-led political dialogue.
