Reports from the southern Libyan city of Kufra suggest that ethnic tensions in the oasis town are again boiling over, with at least 35 people killed this weekend in fighting between members of the Tubu tribes and the local government forces.



Fighting reportedly broke out Saturday, when Tabu militias attacked a government office, an attack that killed 15 pro-regime fighters. Retaliatory fighting hit the
Tubu community today, with a doctor saying at least 20
Tubu , including women and children, were slain

Note: the local NTC claims the
Tubu tribe started by attacking them but Tubu tribe claims the govornment started shelling Tubu neighborhoods and they just responded


the death toll is also disputed in the first two days of fighting (June 9-10) the local NTC reported 23 killed but the Tubu reported 28 killed as of today (june 14) there is still fighting so the number of dead is most likley to increase.
