Spokesman of the Libyan Army, Colonel Mohammad Qanunu, said that a UAE drone, which attacked Air College of Misrata in the early hours of Sunday morning, was shot down by land-based anti-aircraft fire.

"The airstrikes of our forces were painful for the rebels and made them intensify their strikes at random on the airports of Mitiga, Zuwara, and Misrata," Qanunu said Sunday.

He further confirmed that the UAE drones used by Haftar's forces have done no damage to the Libyan Air Force structure.
