Another an-124 from the same base as the previous on in Russia landed in Libya.
Probably more S-300 stuff.

Libyan air force strikes again in Al Watiyah air base. This time they destroy Hawk-XXI battery, Koral EW complex and 2 Korkut vehicles. Most probably LNA use both MiG-29SM and Su-24M. MiG-29SM for air aqnd ECM protecton with Talisman ECM pods and Su-24M for precision strikes with TV or laser guided bombs or with unguided bombs with SVP-24. Su-24M could fly on very low altitudes with help of Relief terrain following radar and come very close to Turkish positions. Pilots seems to be very experienced, so most probably from Syrian AF.
Ούτε 48 ώρες δεν άντεξαν τα τουρκικά αντιαεροπορικά συστήματα Korkut στη Λιβύη, καθώς βομβαρδίστηκαν με χαρακτηριστική ευκολία από μαχητικά αεροσκάφη MiG-29 και Su-24.
Το τουρκικό ανάλογο του ρωσικού αντιπυραυλικού συγκροτήματος «Pantsir-S» δεν κατάφερε να ανταπεξέλθει στις προσδοκίες των Τούρκων στη Λιβύη.
Μαχητικά αεροσκάφη και βομβαρδιστικά κατέστρεψαν τα τουρκικά συγκροτήματα ACV-30 Korkut, τα οποία στην Άγκυρα χαρακτηρίστηκαν ως ανάλογα των ρωσικών πυραυλικών συστημάτων άμυνας Pantsir-S, μόλις 48 ώρες μετά την εγκατάστασή τους στην αεροπορική βάση Αλ Ουατίγια της Λιβύης.

Η Τουρκία μεταφέρει όπλα στη Λιβύη - Σχέδιο περικύκλωσης Ελλάδος-Αιγύπτου
Το χτύπημα, κρίνοντας από τα διαθέσιμα στοιχεία, προκλήθηκε από μαχητικά αεροσκάφη MiG-29, και πιθανώς από βομβαρδιστικά Su-24, τα αφού τύφλωσαν πρώτα το ραντάρ των Korkut στη συνέχεια τα βομβάρδισαν και τα κατέστρεψαν ολοκληρωτικά.
«Μετά την καταστροφή των τουρκικών συστημάτων αεροπορικής άμυνας MIM-23 Hawk στη Λιβύη, η Άγκυρα ανησυχεί για την ασφάλεια του στρατού της σε αυτήν τη χώρα της Βόρειας Αφρικής.
Πρόσθετα αντιαεροπορικά πυραυλικά συστήματα και ηλεκτρονικά συστήματα πολέμου μεταφέρθηκαν στην αεροπορική βάση αλ Ουατίγια. Τώρα, στην επικράτεια του κύριου προπύργιου των Τούρκων στη Λιβύη, το αυτοκινούμενο αντιαεροπορικό όπλο Κορκούτ εμφανίστηκε για πρώτη φορά, το οποίο στην Τουρκία χαρακτηρίζονταν επανειλημμένα ως «ανάλογο» του ρωσικού πυραυλικού συστήματος άμυνας Pantsir-C1, παρά το γεγονός ότι το πυραυλικό σύστημα είναι οπλισμένο μόνο με πυροβόλα και δεν έχει πυραύλους, - αναφέρει η ιστοσελίδα "Reporter".
Το μεγαλύτερο ενδιαφέρον μεταξύ των ειδικών είναι το γεγονός ότι για την αποτελεσματική λειτουργία του ACV-30 Korkut, χρησιμοποιήθηκαν ειδικά ραντάρ, τα οποία υποτίθεται ότι ανιχνεύουν ικανοποιητικά μαχητικά αεροσκάφη και βομβαρδιστικά από απόσταση αρκετών δεκάδων χιλιομέτρων, ωστόσο, όπως αποδείχθηκε, η αεροπορική επίθεση πραγματοποιήθηκε από κοντινή απόσταση και, ως εκ τούτου, υπάρχει η υπόθεση ότι τα μαχητικά, χρησιμοποιώντας το σύστημα πυραύλων «Talisman», απλώς «τύφλωσαν» τα τουρκικά ραντάρ, και κατόπιν βομβάρδισαν με επιτυχία την στρατιωτική αεροπορική βάση.
Turkish Korkut anti-aircraft systems in Libya did not last even 48 hours, as they were bombed with characteristic ease by MiG-29 and Su-24 fighter jets.
The Turkish counterpart of the Russian anti-missile group "Pantsir-S" failed to meet the expectations of the Turks in Libya.
Fighter jets and bombers destroyed the Turkish ACV-30 Korkut complexes, which in Ankara were described as analogous to Russia's Pantsir-S missile defense systems, just 48 hours after they were deployed at Libya's Al Watiya air base.

Turkey transports weapons to Libya - Greece-Egypt siege plan
The strike, judging by the available data, was caused by MiG-29 fighter jets, and possibly Su-24 bombers, which, after first blinding the Korkut radar, then bombed and destroyed them completely.
"Following the destruction of the Turkish MIM-23 Hawk air defense systems in Libya, Ankara is concerned about the security of its army in this North African country.
Additional anti-aircraft missile and electronic warfare systems were transferred to al-Watiya air base. Now, in the territory of the main Turkish stronghold in Libya, the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun Korkut appeared for the first time, which in Turkey was repeatedly described as "analogous" to the Russian Pantsir-C1 missile defense system, despite the fact that the missile system is only with guns and no missiles, - reports the website "Reporter".
The greatest interest among experts is the fact that for the effective operation of the ACV-30 Korkut, special radars were used, which are supposed to detect sufficient fighter jets and bombers from a distance of several tens of kilometers, however, as it turned out, the air attack was carried out by short distance and, therefore, there is the hypothesis that the fighters, using the "Talisman" missile system, simply "blinded" the Turkish radars, and then successfully bombed the military air base.
Libyan air force strikes again in Al Watiyah air base. This time they destroy Hawk-XXI battery, Koral EW complex and 2 Korkut vehicles. Most probably LNA use both MiG-29SM and Su-24M.

Thank you for the translation, @medo . Good stuff. That would be quite something if it's Syrian pilots doing that kind of flying, jamming AND anti-jamming and pin-point accurate bombings. That's something usually left for very experienced air forces and not just very experienced AFs, but ones using state of the art aircraft and have been using them for a while so they'd have such experience with them to tackle such a dangerous mission like that.
Also, what does that say about the turkeys? This is what, the 3rd time they get hit in that same base and every time them pump it up with more anti hitting equipment lol and they still get hit again. Doesn't bode well for the feathered ones, I must say.

OK guys, you are going to love this. The Turks have pulled a real good one whilst they have the GNA over a barrel. They appear to have a contract entitling them to 70% of Libyan import/export duties for the next 5 years and 60% for the 3 years after that.
Note that the contract is not Government to Government, I doubt it would take very long for any of us the think of who might be the beneficial owners of S. C. K. A classic case where the costs (Turkey's activities in Libya) are born by the State but the profits are private (no doubt into the nearest Swiss bank). Could be more lucrative contracts we don't know about out there.
Another incentive for the LNA to take over, scrap that contract.

Perhaps some replacement gear on the way in those A400M. Can't leave the airfield undefended.

Looks like the LNA agreeing to open up the oil system and allow the money to flow was a crucial factor. Running out of money is a great concentrator of the mind. There seems to be talk of elections next year.
This raises a big potential problem for Syria, lots of terrorists returning back to Idlib and the Turks no longer active in two countries in quite the same way.
Also I got the content of those two A400M wrong, apparently not SAMs but 350 odd more terrorists.

LNA didn't have much choice in the end, like I said ways back Haftar had to win a quick war. He could not afford a long one, his offensive stalled and thus he lost. That war was over weeks after it started and it was beyond simple to see what would happen as a result.
Turkey did not need to push the LNA back just hold on.
In terms of Syria, Erdo will not take any more ground but he is annexing the parts of Syria he controls and that is pretty much that.

They say a mig-29 was shot down in Libya. The guy on the video speaks russian but it could be a fake.

If it was a Russian pilot he would not be recording anything.....he would be radio silent avoiding drawing attention to his position encase anyone came towards his location.
Making a video like that and putting it on twitter violates every rule in the book.
Mercenaries also would not be allowed to fly aircraft, so this is fake.

Could be training for search and rescue missions. This guy could simulate pilot and could not be a real pilot. Mercenaries could as well do their trainings to rescue shot down pilots if needed. It was not that far from Al Jufra base and there was no sign of smoke on the horizon, which could be seen from the crash site.

Still would not be uploading it to the web if it was being done while on duty like it was.
But it's possible it was a simulated crash site with Russian mercs conducting a training exercise, that is a reasonable thought.

It can also be a GNA propaganda fake video. We don't see the mig and they have lot of unused mig-21/23 from which they could take the parachute and the seat. Russian language is quite common and many guys in former libyan air force were trained in Russia.
I agree they wouldn't share such video in the middle of a propaganada war with turkey anyway. They documented nothing about the Mig send from Russia. They can't even say who fly them let alone give such video on the net.
I disagree with the training story because they wouldn't use a real parachute neither the real seat behind.

Why not? This could be old retired seat and parashute. After all it is training for rescue teams, which have to find him in the desert and orange rescue parashute is good marker for them. But we do not know, where this training was done. It could be as well in one of Stans.

Because the way the video is shown plays against them as the GNA can say they downed a mig-29 for their propaganda war.
If it was a training of the LNA side they would made it clear in the video.
But since there is no confirmation from both side IMO it's just fake.

It's actually a "Red Line " that's what LNA claims since 6/6 ! along with #aljufrah - #Sirte Road 3 air defense systems deployed type Pantsir-S1 "notice that the camouflage not match with UAE types " also the distance between of them about 75/76km ! which pretty much not randomly

Libya's PM Fayez al-Sarraj reportedly set to resign
Prime Minister of UN-recognised administration said to stay on through negotiations for a new government in Geneva
Libyan Prime Minister Fayez al-Sarraj plans to announce his resignation soon, but will stay on in a caretaker capacity through next month's negotiations over a new government, according to officials familiar with the situation.
With Turkish help, Sarraj, head of the UN-recognised Government of National Accord (GNA) based in Tripoli, quashed a year-long offensive on the capital by eastern commander Khalifa Haftar in June.
Haftar, who is supported by countries including the UAE, Egypt and Russia, backs a rival eastern-based parliament.
Rival Libya governments announce ceasefire and call for elections

Despite Sarraj's defence of Tripoli, his government has since descended into political infighting, and Sarraj has also faced protests over corruption and poor services.
By announcing his resignation, Sarraj would relieve some of the pressure he faces while setting the stage for his departure after the talks in Geneva, two officials told Bloomberg on condition of anonymity.
Under a ceasefire announced last month, the rival sides will be asked to agree on a new presidential council structure that unifies the country's rival administrations and schedules elections.
Four officials told Bloomberg that Sarraj and his aides had discussed his plans with Libyan and international partners.
He is expected to make his announcement by the end of this week, two officials said.
A spokesman for Sarraj declined to comment on the prime minister's plans.
New UN envoy
Meanwhile, the UN Security Council on Tuesday asked Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to appoint a special envoy to broker peace in Libya, although Russia and China abstained from voting on the resolution that also extended the UN mission in the country.
Ghassan Salame, who headed the UN political mission and was also charged with trying to mediate peace, quit in March due to stress.
Guterres informally proposed a replacement, but the United States wanted the role split, to have one person run the UN mission and a special envoy to focus on mediation.
The Security Council agreed to that proposal on Tuesday.
"With the new structure, we will have to present a new candidate and we will have to naturally consult with the Security Council for that purpose," Guterres told Reuters in an interview on Monday.
The Security Council traditionally agrees, informally, by consensus to such appointments.
Several months ago, the US proposed that Guterres appoint former Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt to be special envoy, but diplomats said she had since withdrawn herself from consideration.
Russia and China said they abstained on the resolution on Tuesday because it did not include their suggested amendments.
"I'm shocked with the fact that so many spoilers, so many countries, have been interfering with the Libyan situation, building up military capacity on both sides... completely disregarding resolutions of the Security Council in relation to the arms embargo, or mercenaries," Guterres told Reuters.

Read that news as well elsewhere.
It seems that things are getting a bit hot for him in Tripoli and now that he has loads of money tucked away in banks all over Europe it is time for him to disappear off and enjoy it.

Man if there were any few words that brought a conflict to an abrupt end, they were the ones uttered with pure intentions that there will be a huge price to pay and that there would be a lot of blood seeping in the Libyan desert sand and those words were spoken by the man himself, president Sisi who's few but exact words "this will be crossing the red line for us" that brought this entire conflict to a sudden halt! I would say "unelievable" but it really isn't. I think a lot of people (and especially the turkeys gobblegobblegobble) were flaunting their supposed tough guy appearance and suddenly got slapped in the face with the biggest bitch slap pharaoinic style that their legs started shakking and they haven't stopped shaking to the point where last week they've been calling and begging the Egyptian administration to talk about the EEZ in the Mediterranean as they see all the decisions Sisi and Co. have made were spot on and that we are allies with our Cypriot and especially our Greek borthers and sisters that the Turks will have to kiss out arse first before even saying a word and then maybe, just maybe we'll listen to the gargle they have to say. But I doubt we'll want anything from them now that they're begging to be our friends after all the filthy bad-mouthing they did to us and our president. I say screw them and take your terrorros back with you to Syria or we will end up wiping them out one by one.
That Egyptian/Libyan border has been secured to the max with the new border control system as well as the southern Sudanese border. The new system will make it MUCH easier to detect infiltrators and target them immediately instead of the old, recon method that took long hours and flight times and wasn't very accurate. Now with satellites and a command and control station, it's only minutes from when they're spotted to when the bombs and rockets come pounding on their heads, thanks to the turkey terroros who want to be our friends LOL!. Red Line, just remember that.

(GNA) and (LNA) met in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Hurghada for talks facilitated by the mission.
The parties urged the 5+5 JMC to swiftly resume face-to-face meetings starting next week, while all people detained on account of their identity or origin should be released “without pre-conditions or restrictions”. Additionally, a prisoner exchange should occur before the end of October.
They also called for ending hate speech campaigns, replacing hatred “with a discourse of tolerance and reconciliation”, as well as rejection of violence and terrorism.
Other recommendations included expediting the re-opening of air traffic and land transportation across Libya to ensure freedom of movement of all citizens.
Participants also called for the 5+5 JMC to prioritize the PFG issue, and to take measures to ensure the regular production and export of oil and gas.
Gratitude and hope
“UNSMIL expresses its sincere gratitude to the Government of Egypt for its efforts in facilitating this important round of Libyan talks”, the statement continued.
“The Mission equally appreciates the efforts of both delegations and welcomes the outcomes reached during the discussion. UNSMIL hopes that this positive development will contribute to paving the way towards a final and lasting ceasefire agreement.”

Everyone welcomed except Erdogan ,maybe the deal is not too achievable to steal well
Turkey’s Erdogan says Libya ceasefire doesn’t seem ‘too achievable’

It is claimed that Turkey has seized $8B that Libya had deposited in Turkish banks. Excellent return on investment I'd say.

With today's statement, any future conflict in the regions of Tripolitania & Cyrenaica is (probably) finished unless both sides don't fullfill the key points of the new agreement. Leaving only the region of Fezzan as a combat scenario between LNA & insurgence groups

On the other hand, we can appreciate some important movements in Libya, where #LNA is about to begin a serious combing operation in the southern part of the country in order to fight insurgence groups (Tebu & #GNA) as many reinforcements are being deployed in Jufrah & Shaba
