Report on The Liberation of Gheryan
August 13, 2011:
Translation by Wafaa:
They are advancing on all axes. Concerning Gheryan, there is a big improvement today. Some of the previous info was very optimistic. I'd like to be specific on details : today. Gheryan - Freedom Fighters entered el Qawasim area through the road el Hamra, which it leads to Qawassim from Gitiif, and they liberated fully el Qawassim. EL Qawassim is the first area, coming from Tripoli to Gheryan. Freedom Fighters are combing the area. There is some bombing now and Ghaddafi troops that are in ghass in the middle of Gheryan are bombing to prevent Freedom Fighters of advancing to them. There are also some Ghaddafi troops in another axe in Bourchada area bombing the Freedom Fighters, trying to prevent them from advancing to the middle of the city. We are positive that FF will succeed to liberate Gheryan completely. The people of gheryan are supporting and joined Freedom Fighters. The Freedom Fighters are advancing from el Qawassim with heavy weapons toward Ghassat the middle of Gheryan. All the battalions (Sahban and the 8th battalion ) willl be completely destructed. I appeal to all the Libyans in the battalions to surrender and save their lives because there is no way out and don't suicide for the sake of the tyrant. That will end very soon. Return to your families.
