Seven soldiers from the Libyan National Army (LNA) were killed in fighting east of Derna over three days (from 4-6 June) between the LNA and Shura Council of Darnah Mujahidin (SCDM) forces. The LNA reportedly had taken ground from Al-Qaeda forces. The fighting had included air strikes by LNA jet fighters and helicopters. The LNA regularly describes the SCDM as Al-Qaeda. The DRSC counter-claimed, saying that on 4 June it had repulsed an LNA attack at Al-Dahr Al-Ahmar and managed to seize ammunition and vehicles. |
