LNA Commander pointed out that experience had proven that any comprehensive solution or initiative would not succeed without the approval of the Libyan people. “LNA General Command urges the Libyan people to adhere to the right to self-determination and not to rely on foreign agendas,” he added. “We welcome the UN envoy and remind him of his pledges not to adopt any initiative to resolve the crisis unless it comes from the Libyan people,” Haftar stated. LNA Commander explained that the Libyan situation is different from what it had been, as it is witnessing a growing popular movement to bring about radical change. “Time is not on the side of parties seeking to manage the crisis without solving it in order to prolong it using flimsy pretexts and suspicious initiatives,” the Field Marshal said.

Libya has ‘‘concluded an agreement with Eni and BP to start drilling and producing gas in the Mediterranean’’, according to the chairman of its National Oil Corporation (NOC), Farhat Bengdara. Bengdara was speaking to Sky News Arabia during his participation in the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) today. The gas field from which Eni and BP will start production is similar to the Egyptian Zohr field, but it is larger, he further added. Bengdara revealed that Libya expects oil revenues of between 35 and 37 billion dollars this year, the highest since 2013. He said the country’s proven gas reserves exceed 80 trillion cubic feet but that the sector needs new investments of US$ 4 billion annually to maintain the volume of oil production.

On this day, October 31, 1803 Libyan sailors captured the American frigate USS Philadelphia. Back then, captains of the Libyan navy, led by admiral Zureik, went out on several small dhows and lured the frigate USS Philadelphia to shallow rocky waters, where it was suspended and immobilized about 3 km off the coast of Tripoli. The Captain of Philadelphia, William Bainbridge, tried to refloat the frigate, which was subjected to a violent attack from the boats of the Libyan navy, but he failed, so he and his soldiers decided to surrender after they threw their guns into water and destroyed what they could destroy. As a result, 307 American sailors fell into the grip of the Pasha of Tripoli, who placed officers under house arrest at the American Consulate, while other sailors were exploited in hard labor, and all remained in captivity until the end of the war.

Allison Fluke-Ekren, 42, faces up to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to terror charges in June in a US District Court in Alexandria, Virginia.
