Misrata war museums pose civilian threat

Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

Bullet casings piled up in Misrata, Libya. Months of fighting in Misrata have left an abundance of ordnance scattered all over the city, some of which has been gathered by residents and placed in displays in front of buildings and in public spaces such as parks. Yet these museums include some extremely dangerous unexploded ordnance, and an ordnance disposal team from the ACT Alliance is working with local residents and city officials to neutralize the threat posed to civilians by the war debris.
