The battle for Tripoli has taken another turn as Russian fighters allied with Libyan renegade commander Khalifa Haftar have retreated from the front lines.
Haftar’s forces have been trying to capture the capital for 13 months, but they have suffered a string of defeats in recent fighting against the UN-recognised government, which is supported by fighters from Turkey.
The mayor of Bani Waleed confirmed the Russians left from an airbase in the town, in three military planes.

It seems that Turkey use Al Jazeela to spread fake news. When you say the news , show the evidence and you don’t tell people who is in the control of 85% of the country. In Syria, you told people that Turkey drones killed hundreds of its enemies but they didn’t capture a single village in three weeks of offensive.
John ince I couldn’t believe how Turkey lost more than 30 soldiers in one Russian bombardment but didn’t do anything even taking the whole region
@Moise how many Russian dead in Idlib ask putin or Google it, , soldiers are soldiers to die to fulfil their duty,
John ince Google is same as Al jazeela all report fake news
Moise lol Russia have been taken a beating in Syria and now in Libya. The world now is looking at the Russian air defense systems as complete garbage. Millions of dollars worth of air defense systems has been easily destroyed by Turkish drones.
The biggest winner from all this is actually the USA, their air defense weapons sales will sky-rock since nobody will buy Russian weapons any more.
Mazen Algaradi Why Turkey didn’t manage to recapture a single village when they lost more than 30 soldiers in Syria? they sent 25k soldiers to revenge their fallen soldiers but they didn’t manage to take a single village in 3 weeks of fighting. They told us that their drones killed hundreds of enemies and destroyed their vehicles but did nothing on ground inside Turkish president run to Putin to ask if they can stop fighting
If Turkey had not intervened in Libya, a military dictatorship similar to Egypt would have been established…
Better than the muslim brotherhood
Butter then the terrorist government of Turkey you are all over it’s over for you lna hafters forces just destroyed a Turkish ship carrying weapons Libya well be a grave yard for turks 🖕🏻🇹🇷
Mahdi Medd cry baby cryyyy
Libyans love Turkey

@Soul Catcher who
Haftar and Putin kill civilians… Haftar and Putin are war criminals…
turkey used syrian hard core rebel group in libya
And now Libya’s successful process of desecuritization have started with Turkish weapons and UAVs. The game of Rebels of Hafter over
Короче это гавно в школе уже давить надо гето оно вечно наверх всплывает. Все ясно с политикой.
Finally finish hafter forces in Libya. Hafter forces continues killing innocent civilians in Libya by France Russia UAE Egypt
Turkey is always helps to global governments destroy Islamic countries like Syria Libya Afghanistan Egypt Yemen Somalia Tunisia Lebanon .

Masallah allah yardimcilari olsun inanin biz dha selam yoladik dha govdemizi ve basimzi koymadik grekirse canda veririz ama artik bu musluman ulkelerndeki kan biteck allah in izniyle allahuekber
People like HAFTAR are EVIL. Just to gain power this man with the other countries support is DESTROYING LIBYA. HAFTAR= KURDOGLU
Kariin Abdi Ofcourse you brainwashed Somalis from Movgadishu will forget all the crimes the devil from Anakara has inflicted upon millions in Iraq, Libya, Syria, Egypt, and elsewhere.
😂😂😂And Erdogan supporting isis and Al_qaeda isn’t evil?
@Lanja Trump said , isis founded by Obama and Hillary Clinton. Isis is an enemy for Türkiye.They fight and isis finished.
@Robe G What about , tell us ?I think you mixed Türkiye with DA and UE.
Erdoğan is good leader , he isn t a puppet like Sisi or Salman .
Turkey is the only country that will save (unstable) muslim nation I.e libya ,Syria, somalia and Yemen
Get out
The sad reality.
Gna:much militias,thiefs,gangsters,’slave-merchants’ and thousands of syrians…slaves of Turkey,Qatar and Italy
Lna:more militias,putchists,war criminals,mercenaries of much countries… lidered by Haftar a disaster of “general”. agent of Cia, puppet of France,UAE,Israel,the saudis,Russia,Egypt…..
Libya it is destroyed,whoever wins we all know that they will continue killing fot 10 o 20 more years, because nobody cares about peace, all the world powers are looting libya,stealing their wealth in exchange for triying new weapons with their compatriots and intentionally leading the country to ruin and misery.
this is the sad reallity.
I am confused about this story. Who’s side should the United Kingdom be on? I am no fan of Russia, but while Turkey is a member of NATO I also do not believe Turkey is trustworthy.
UK is irrelevant today’s world stage, protect first your own people from coronavirus, losing 50,000 in 3 months
I will have no Stakes in Wagnor Group fully Owned by Mr Putin……I will be Fully Owning K.B.W……Alhamduillah Inshallah………
The mafia that is the current government of Russia is the enemy #1. A little bit longer and it will be like North Korea, but with working nukes.
🇹🇷🇹🇷
The voice of Ottomans grandsons’s steeps 😎🇹🇷🇹🇷
Hahah keep dreaming dumbass XD
@Predator of Darkness keep crying we are coming chickens
The game maker Turkey 🇹🇷
Down GNA-ARMY
Long live House of Representative and LNA
Turkey needs an Arab ally and Choose Libya cause Libya is in Turmoil so Turkey can use Libya againts Saudi Arabia
Next step for Russian mercenary is Syria if not then go home to meet boss Putin.
UAE you’re days are numbered. TURKEY will be coming for you next. Turkey will clean this mess in Libya called Haftar that you created. Mohammed Bin Zayed you should be worried.🤯
They got an Ottoman Slap! ✌
mercenaries in ukraine in syria in suda in libya from where ? ? ? Russia !
First major russian blunder
The reporter English is rubbish then me 😂
Propaganda everywhere Russians are coming not leaving 😉
Not with those anti air defense though😂 those things are garbage
Looks like Erdogan’s trained proxy Syrian Al Quaida and ISIS fighters are killing again.
This bodes an ill wind for everyone.
Poor Russians I feel sorry for them! There fighters are no good.. And there Air Defence Systems are no good either! LOL They are no match for Turkey!
Their:Onların
Turkey 🇹🇷 is a gamechanger 😁🤷🏻♂️
Yes brother 💯 agree with you 👍
Russia is back with more troops and aircraft 😎
Ottoman 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Turkey and western kill Libya leader because of oil and they are fighting this war because of oil evil ognazation
Turkey has offered the world only genocides, illegal occupations and invasions. Just ask Assyrians, Armenians, Greeks, Syrians, Cypriots,Kurds,Libyans etc !!
Awkward English
Should have shot it down once in Air! And kill the lot of them.
All those who tried to take power by force and done so much killings like Haftar should be put on trial and executed. Its because of these greedy people Libya is in this state after the killing Gadafi (not forgetting western countries unjust bombing of Libya and killing Gadafi unjustly as well.)
That’s abandoned airbase lol send that so call UN back government to where his belong
Your lack of knowledge and intel of this war clearly shows that you are brainwashed by your government.
That “ abandoned” air base is considered the most important base in the western region and was a big strong hold of haggard forces.
This is a big.fat.lie
Actually I support democracy in Libya …. Even though the Libyan people are about to face real poverty …..
Haftar under estimated Turkey. He believed with uae money and russian military support he was walking on a red carpet to be the next king of libya. Turkey pulled that carpet right out from under his feet and ruined his credibility and completely humiliated him
All of them are terrorists,
Lybian race is beautiful and war must end in lybia. Lybian people only want their chosen prime minister who work for only lybian people.
Murderer mbz
The Bayraktar coming, go haftar go 😂
down with stooge governments, they only support the enemy witch is anti good, Long Live Turkey
Turkey is doing all nonsense
they are the ones with decent head over their soulder!
USA poked too much of its nose in others affairs look at the situation today they have first quality weapons to kill but no ventilators to save people, same case with Russia they have big land mass but small heart poking nose in others affairs putin has to stop staining his hand with more and more blood ussr was broken once into pieces hope putin don’t want it to be broken again and emir of Abu Dhabi should understand his emirate is a water bubble without outside support he can’t sustain for 2 hours better he can take rest in his lavish palaces instead of poking nose in Egypt Libya and yemen
This is really win for democracy in Libya’s legitimate government Backed by UN together with turkey and Qatar Against evil forces and terror axis 🇫🇷 🇦🇪🇪🇬🇷🇺🇮🇱.. imagine with out Turkish involvement what would have happened in Libya and Qatar.. Things would be totally different.. If not 🇹🇷.
Your crazy everybody is their because of the oil
🖕🖕🖕
R.I.P COLONEL QADDAFI
Thank you 🇹🇷
Thanks to 🇹🇷
HAFTER WLL Never Forget that Ottoman slap on his face rest of his life that was the Justice slap
Turkey is the bigboss in the new world
Libya is Turkish property they are reclainming it
@unknown unknown 😂😂😂 nice joke.
@Aedin Ridmash it ain’t a joke.
*How unpredictable the Time”s can be* ……………. *A month or 2 b4 Haftar (war Dog) was almost on the outskirts of Tripoli, confident enough as the Great Satan (MBZ UAE) & Russia were on his side*
*Now He must be begging to his backers for asylum but I wish for his capture*
Syria then Yemen now is Libya who is next?
Turks are coming for libyanian people ❤️❤️❤️🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
I wish that was true but erdogan is their for is OWN agenda
Libya is Turkish property they are reclaiming it.
@unknown unknown nice joke
Thanks Turkey 🇹🇷
Respect to Russia for fighting against the radical Islamists!united nations supports globalists and jihadists.
Russia is losing you fool.Ruskies retreating from Western Libya 😂
Haftar is looking to establish a more secular state. Kudos to him
Haftar u better don’t mess with the Turks! 🔥
France is involved in supporting Haftar and is involved in the arrival of Russian fighters in Libya. NATO should punish France ….Turks are defending the civilians in Tripoli, they are defending the legitimate government and they are defending southern Europe! They pledged to restore stability and peace to Libya.
❤❤❤🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇹🇷🇹🇷🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇶🇦🇶🇦🇶🇦
We Turks know it before, that the Story will be like that and that Hafter and his supporters will run. If Turkey join a Battlefield there is just two options. Win or Die, I dont know what they thought.
Two Turkish Soldiers died, if the Turkish blood touch the ground, no one can stop the Army anymore.
Long Live Haftar, We are with Hafar. If any non arab, non african nations thinks more about libya then we have to take its tok much fraudulent
runaway bfr ur wiped out u fckin criminals !!!
Thought Haftar is the good guy?
Longlive Turkey
It’s so funny these Arab dictorial regimes cant fight their own battles instead they resort to using foreign powers like Russia and US to fight their wars like Israel.
MOTHER RUSSIA 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺 LIBYA =NEXT idlib
Al jazeera supports terrorism

Don’t confuse Turkey with dictorial Arab regimes.There is a reason why Turkey defeated the West
@Esa Shaik lol your so butthurt u cant even read right im not talking Turkey or West yah fool talking about Libya.
@Dustin Tacohands Turkey is a democratic country and its Muslim.Muslim countries can function without dictators.

Us Turks will advance all the way to Qatar, this is to easy. Welcome to the new Turkish era
Christian crusaders left libya amid of failures
Haftar should be blown to bits.
Yes,you hate russia because you proud islam.Accept the fact that your barbaric islamic ideology are the cause of your hatred and intolerance towards the humanity lives.
Sunna of Muhammad may curse be upon him for spreading evil Islam on earth
What a pathetic reporting. This is old video, filmed 2 years ago. It has nothing to do with Russians.
