Nella città assediata dove regnano i miliziani

All'aeroporto la scena pazzesca di migliaia di persone ammassate una sull'altra. Militari e mercenari accorrono verso Zawia. Per le strade spuntano elmetti e mimetiche

dal nostro inviato VINCENZO NIGRO

TRIPOLI - Una guerra. Tripoli aspetta una guerra.
Non c'è altra sensazione nel vedere, nel percorrere questa città vuota, paralizzata e congelata dal maestrale impazzito che solleva polvere e sabbia. Come sempre, chi può prova a fuggire: alle 5 del pomeriggio, quando nell'aeroporto di Tripoli ci affacciamo sulla hall delle partenze, rimaniamo senza parole.

L'Istituto statunitense per la Scienza e la Sicurezza Internazionale (ISIS) ha pubblicato un rapporto sul programma nucleare siriano, affermando che il Paese sia dotato di strutture molto più avanzate di quanto previsto. Queste ultime comprenderebbero, oltre al reattore distrutto ad Al-Kibar,un impianto di conversione dell'uranio e tre siti di stoccaggio.

É la prima volta dal 1979 (anno della Rivoluzione in Iran), che due navi da guerra iraniane attraversano il Canale di Suez.
Secondo una fonte iraniana a Damasco, le navi hanno attraccato in Siria, nel porto di Lattaquieh.
