Local Civil Defence role in Libyan conflict

A Ballinasloe man fighting in the Libyan Civil War has said that training he received with the town’s Civil Defence has helped to save the lives of combatants. Originally from the strategic oil city of Zawiya to the west of Tripoli, which has seen some of the fiercest fighting during the war, Kareem Khbuli has lived in Ballinasloe for around 16 years and his father Nuri is a doctor at Portiuncula Hospital.
