Diário de Viseu7 September 2026 at 08:15

Libyan authorities announced the detention of five people suspected of being involved in attacks on the cities of Zawiya and Tripoli. The announcement was made by the government, which did not specify what concrete crimes were attributed to the detainees or when the arrests were made.

The Libyan executive accused the existence of a "vast conspiracy against the resources of the Libyan people," suggesting that the attacks were related to attempts at illegal appropriation of the country's resources. This statement indicates that authorities believe the suspects were involved in coordinated activities to harm national interests.

The exact nature of the attacks and specific targets were not detailed in the announcement. Zawiya is a coastal city located west of Tripoli, while Tripoli is the capital and largest city of Libya, frequently being the scene of political tensions and conflicts between different factions.

How Independence Day Erased the Memory of the Black Struggle for Independence and Abolition

The article analyzes how Brazil's Independence Day erased from national memory the black struggle for the abolition of slavery. It recalls that a popular movement advocated, among its demands, the republican regime and the end of slavery, but its leaders were executed in public squares decades before September 7, 1822. The text questions the official narrative that celebrates independence without recognizing the role of black and indigenous peoples in this process, in addition to highlighting how abolition came decades after independence, in 1888, and was followed by the proclamation of the Republic in 1889.
