Libyan National Army march on Sirte. After weeks of skirmishing and srone attacks they enter unopposes after the Brigade 604 forces, who had been aligned with the Government of National Accord and defending Sirte, allowed them to enter. Brigade 604 forces should moved out to the board edge and off the map from turn 6.

It is reported that the Libyan National Army are not yet advancing on Misrata as they are planning to negotiate with the militias there with regards to a peaceful handover.

However, it was also reported that Government of National Accord rentered Sirte on 7 January 2020 and captured a number of Libyan National Army troops and equipment, although that was false and they later stated that they withdrew in order to prevent further bloodshed. As such, the Government of National Accord reinforcements that arrive between turns 5 and 9 are optional units that allow the player to consider that scenario.

Further optional Egyptian units are included although there is no basis for their presence other than previous reports stating that Egypt intended to provide the Libyan National Army with armoured vehicles on the condition that they got them back.

Sirte Harbour was taken by Libyan National Army seals and secured with the Libyan National Navy vessel AlKarama.

Included are Libyan National Army airmobile units.
