This is the arm...do you know anything about these mines?
-
The parachute...
-
This is an anti-personnel aerial mine
-
The way it is delivered...you can see the parachute
-
It explodes at the slightest movement
-
You can see the tripod, it fell this way on the asphalt on its side
-
It should root itself in the ground endangering any passing cars or people
-
Q: How was it delivered?
-
By air.
-
A plane? Helicopter?
-
We heard a plane at 9pm yesterday
-
We saw it and left it alone because we couldn't deal with it at night, it wasn't something we were familiar with
-
Then at 6am we came back and everything was dealt with
-
At around 9pm on Thursday 5/5 Gaddafi forces used 2 helicopters marked with the red cross/red crescent
-
to drop several mines, around 50 of them, in the port. This is one of them.
-
Our fighters met the planes, which then flew off, and then they dealt with the mines
-
Q: What about the damage caused yesterday?
-
A vehicle which some of the fighters were using was hit and several were wounded
-
But thank God no one was killed
-
and as for other damage, some trucks and cars
-
Thank God and God is with us
-
God is great.

Kabru / say takbir
-
God is Great.

This is one of the mines Gaddafi threw on us which was detonated.
