La Segunda Batalla de Ras Lanuf fue una batalla entre el ejército leal al líder libio Muamar el Gadafi y los rebeldes, dentro del marco de la Rebelión en Libia de 2011.
Antecendentes
El 6 de marzo, cuando los rebeldes avanzaban hacia Sirte, fueron emboscados por las tropas leales en Ben Yauad y puestos en fuga.[10] Así pues, se retiraron a Ras Lanuf, donde fueron bombardeados durante los días siguientes. Tras tres días de constante bombardeo, se reportaron 20 rebeldes muertos y al menos 65 heridos.[11]
Batalla
On 10 March, the BBC reported that troops loyal to Col Muammar Gadfafi had cleared rebels from Ras Lanuf. A rebel fighter told AFP news agency, "We've been defeated. They are shelling and we are running away. That means that they're taking Ras Lanuf." Gaddafi attacked the city with tanks and artillery from the west and the south, ships fired upon the city from the north, while airplanes bombed the town.[12] Rebel reinforcements from the east tried to enter the city, but were immediately attacked and a rebel commander reported dozens of his fighters were killed and many others missing.[13] Later that evening, most rebel forces had retreated from the town and were trying to set up a line of defense east of the city, while some hard-core opposition fighters were continuing to put up resistance in Ra's Lanuf. Four opposition fighters were confirmed killed during the fighting, 36 were wounded[14] and 65 were missing.[15]
By the evening of the 10th, all major news media were reporting that the town had fallen with large numbers of rebel fighters killed or captured, despite a denial from the rebel-led council in Benghazi.[16] The government claimed that an estimated 1,500 rebel fighters had been captured.[13] After the battle anti-Gaddafi fighters advised civilians to leave the area around Brega in expectation of continuing advances by government forces.[17]
On the morning of 11 March, the first loyalist ground troops entered the town with 150 soldiers, backed up by three tanks, and managed to get to the city center. At the same time, four transport boats came in from the sea and unloaded 40-50 soldiers each on the beach near the Fadeel hotel. They were engaged by hard-core rebel remnants, who had not retreated from Ra's Lanuf the previous day.[18] Government troops captured the residential area, but the rebels continued to hold out in the oil port facilities for a few hours before they too retreated from Ra's Lanuf east of the city. The town had fallen. However, in the afternoon, the rebels regrouped, mounted a counteroffensive and managed to expel the loyalist forces from the eastern part of the town.[19] Government soldiers still held the western part of the city and a stalemate soon developed.[20]
On 12 March, rebels fighting in Ras Lanuf retreated in the afternoon to the town of Uqayla west of Marsa Brega[21] and rebel leaders confirmed that pro-Gaddafi forces had driven them 20 km out of the town and captured the oil refinery.[22] Later during the day, the government took foreign journalists to the city for confirmation of the town's fall.[23]
Consecuencias
Un duro golpe a las fuerzas pro Gadafi y provoca hace que el control de las grandes refinerías y puertos del mediterráneo pasen a manos rebeldes. Ras Lanuf, ya en poder de los rebeldes, que avanzaban hacia Sirte, ciudad natal del sátrapa a 450 kilómetros de Trípoli, y previsiblemente un botín más difícil de capturar para los insurgentes.
