actor1: Military Forces of Libya (2014-) Haftar Faction
actor2: Militia (Ibrahim Jadran)
notes: Petroleum Facilities Guards (PFG) loyal to Ibrahim Jadran attempted to recapture the oil ports and terminals lost to Khalifa Hafter and the Libyan National Army (LNA) forces. At least five PFG members killed and vehicles destroyed and captured. The attack from two directions on Ras Lanuf and Sidra initially met with some success with the PFG pushing into the town of Ras Lanuf. However the advance was met with airstrikes as well as a counterattack by ground forces. The ministry of defence from the GNA protested that the air strikes had been launched by UAE or Egyptian planes but gave no further details.
