The United Nations, UN Support Mission in Libya has condemned an attack on an ambulance in south of the Libyan capital, Tripoli.
This is where clashes have been ongoing between the UN-backed government and the east-based army.
The Mission is shocked by the attack yesterday against an armoured ambulance in Qasr Bin Ghashir, southern Tripoli, seriously injuring the Director of Ambulance and Emergency Medical Services and two paramedics.
It also warned attacks against health workers constitute a serious violation of International Humanitarian Law.
The east-based army, led by Khalifa Haftar has been leading a military campaign since early April to take over Tripoli, where the UN-backed government is based.According to the World Health Organisation, WHO the fighting has so far killed four hundred and forty three people and displaced nearly about sixty thousand others.
