The spokesman of Sabha Municipal Council, Osama Al-Wafi, has deplored the deployment of armed cars inside the runway of Sabha International Airport to prevent airplanes from landing.

He added that Sabha Airport is a vital facility and lifeline for the entire southern region in light of the current crises and the deterioration of the security situations on the land roads.
He held the commander of the Sabha Military Zone and the Southern Operations Room all the moral, legal and humanitarian responsibility for the closure of the airport.
