Libyan activists published a video clip showing protests in which dozens of Syrian mercenaries took part, who demonstrated in a camp inside the Police College in the Libyan capital for not having received their financial dues that the GNA promised to pay them after the agreement with the Turkish side to transfer them to Tripoli.
Libyan media reported that the mercenaries' late dues amounted to about $10,000 dollars per person. In this context, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights revealed in a report published on Friday, January 1, the feelings of resentment that prevailed among the pro-Ankara mercenaries who were sent by Turkey to Libya.
For his part, the director of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdul Rahman, revealed the details of the "financial crisis" that the mercenary fighters are suffering from. "They are in a difficult situation.
They are deducted from their salaries, and the salaries do not reach the families of these people until late, and they are traded by mercenary leaders in the currency speculation market," he added.
The Syrian Observatory had indicated a few days ago that the issue of the presence of pro-Ankara mercenaries in Libya was returning to the fore, especially in light of the suspension of the file by the Turkish government, which turned the fighters into mercenaries and sent them there despite the Libyan-Libyan agreement.
The return of the factions' fighters from Libya to Syria is still on hold for 43 days, specifically from the middle of November, amid news of the return of batches of them at the beginning of 2021, while no information has been received until the moment about the reasons for their stay there.
The Observatory stated that the number of conscripts who went to Libya so far reached about 18,000 mercenaries of Syrian nationality, including 350 children under the age of 18, and about 10,750 of the mercenaries of the pro-Turkish factions returned to Syria after the end of their contracts and taking their financial dues, while the number of jihadists who arrived in Libya reached 10,000, among them 2,500 of Tunisian nationality. It is also reported that the death toll of the mercenaries of the Syrian factions loyal to Ankara in Libya amounted to 496 dead.
In a related development, Turkey continued to transfer military equipment and weapons to the Al-Watiya air base in Libya in preparation for the joint exercises that Ankara intends to conduct with the GNA, while a Libyan military source confirmed that two military cargo planes from Turkey transported ammunition and weapons to Al-Watiya, amid UN calls for the formation of an international monitoring committee to support the "fragile truce" in Libya.
Erdogan regime believes that chaos is the only way to cover up his crimes in Libya. The sabotage role played by Erdogan is the main reason for the failure of the parties to reach a political solution that guarantees the security and stability of the country.
