Russian air defense system deployed to strategic Libyan city: video
BEIRUT, LEBANON (11:40 A.M.) – A new video widely shared on social media shows a Russian air defense system being moved into a strategic city in Libya.
According to the video, the Russian-made Pantsir-S1 system can be seen being transported near the strategic port-city of Sirte, which is where both the Libyan National Army (LNA) and Government of National Accord (GNA) forces have been amassing troops for several weeks.
In this instance, however, the Pantsir-S1 system is being deployed by the Libyan National Army, who is currently backed by a number of foreign countries, including Egypt, Russia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
