GHANAIANS IN LIBYA HIT BY AIR STRIKES

The Libyan province called Sabha, on the South West of Tripoli where some 4,000 Ghanaians have gathered waiting to be rescued has been hit by bombs.
Reports reaching Adom News indicate that the bomb hits occurred last night and early this morning.
BBC news also reported that Britain's Ministry of Defence said its Tornado GR4 aircraft carried out strikes on ammunition bunkers on Monday morning in the Sabha region, in the southern Libya desert.
Sabha is where some Ghanaians are waiting to be rescued and some of them tell Adom News that some of their Ghanaians were affected and have been sent to hospitals in that town.
They are therefore appealing to government to come to their aid in and on time.
They have requested government to send buses to convey them back home since there is a no flight zone in Libya right now.
The frustrated Ghanaians say they might have no other option than to walk through the desert to get back home if the government fails to rescue them.
Some of the frustrated Ghanaians on the desert spoke with Adom news.

Recently some 54 Ghanaians walked through the desert to Ghana due and others are reportedly doing same because nothing has been heard of government’s promise to convey them home with buses.
But Deputy Minister of Information Baba Jamal says it is not true that Ghanaians have been affected in the air strike.
He explains that those who are still there refusing to obey orders.
