Libyan Regime: NATO Attack Kills 3 Civilians

HeadlineAug 05, 2011

The Gaddafi regime is accusing NATO of killing three civilians in Zlitan: a mother and her two young sons. Journalists were shown the victims’ bodies on Thursday. Libyan government spokesperson Moussa Ibrahim condemned the alleged attack.

Moussa Ibrahim: “In the city of Zlitan, you saw with your own eyes the dead bodies of small children and their mother. There are many other examples around the country. Unfortunately, we are only able to take you to some scenes of these crimes. These take place every day. Sometimes whole families are killed.”
