2. Battle for Control over the Narrative:
Last night LNA/Wagner disinformation networks hosted a Clubhouse room aiming to control the narrative. Their suppression tactics, including jamming microphones until 4am highlight the significance of Libyan social perception in the war

3. The Wagner Group actively participates in the information war, utilizing their Twitter, Facebook and Telegram channels for recruitment to run disinformation networks in Libya and across the African continent.

6. I spoke to a Western diplomatic source who stated they received confirmation from “the highest levels of the GNU” the drone strike took place.
GNU military sources are not authorised to leak this, but acknowledge the drone strike took place whilst denying responsibility

7. Confirmation II:
The story starts before last nights drone strike. Yesterday, a military source confirmed to me at 14:45 (local time) Il76s were en route to UAE’s airbase at Al Khadim to evacuate Prizohvin aligned personnel from Libya to Uganda 🇺🇬 (continued)

8. He confirmed it was an Akinci drone strike without casualties but equipment was damaged & Prizohvin has been downgraded in #Libya. He claims (but I can’t confirm) Prizohvin aligned Wagner personnel were evacuated & are currently in Entebbe, Uganda en route to Minsk, Belarus 🇧🇾
9. Despite initial denials & responsible analysts retracting tweets to avoid accidentally spreading disinformation, persistent research and confirmation from high-level sources established the credibility of the drone strike. #Libya
