BackgroundThe Tarhouna Al-Awfea militia group was enlisted under the command of the Libyan National Army, and performed several missions tasked by military command. On the day before the clashes, Commander Abu-Alija Habshi travelled to Tripoli with two tanks that were to be given to the army barracks. However, Habshi was stopped at a checkpoint outside of Tripoli and was asked to leave the tanks there instead; he was also informed that he needed to return to Tarhouna in order to obtain proper government documentation. However, that was the last time Habshi has been reported seen by anyone. The Libyan government has denied any involvement in Habshi's disappearance, but militiamen under the Commander's authority have alleged that the security forces are closely connected with the disappearance.[1] Events200 gunmen belonging to the Al-Awfea militia took control of the Tripoli International Airport and stopped all flights, after Al-Awfea militiamen ignored the ultimatum given by Defence minister Osama Juwaili to surrender the SSC and MoD forces[1] that stormed the airport, destroyed one tank and captured the other and also arrested more than 172 Tarhouni militiamen.[2] AftermathThe airport remained non-functional after the clashes. Government spokesman Nasser al-Manee said that "the airport will resume operation within 24 hours. [He] heard there were some injured". The next day, on 6 June, some airliners restarted their flights from Tripoli International.[3] References1. ^1 {{cite news|title=Exclusive – New details emerge about Tripoli airport seizure as Libya Herald gains access to prisoners at Metiga airbase|url=http://www.libyaherald.com/exclusive-new-details-emerge-about-tripoli-airport-siege-as-libya-herald-gains-access-to-metiga-airbase/|accessdate=30 June 2012|newspaper=Libya Herald|date=6 June 2012|author=George Grant and Rida Akil|agency=Libya Herald}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=The airport fiasco|url=http://www.libyaherald.com/the-airport-fiasco/|accessdate=30 June 2012|newspaper=Libya Herald|date=8 June 2012|author=Umar Khan|agency=Libya Herald}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=Update – Some flights resume at Tripoli airport|url=http://www.libyaherald.com/some-flights-resume-at-tripoli-airport|accessdate=30 June 2012|newspaper=Libya Herald|date=6 June 2012|author=Staff|agency=Libya Herald}}
