The Joint Operations Force announced on Monday that it has launched an investigation into the explosion that struck an ammunition warehouse in Misrata. The force confirmed that the inquiry, mandated by the Public Prosecutor, is supported by surveillance camera footage and that initial findings do not indicate deliberate sabotage.

In a statement, the force urged citizens not to be misled by rumours and to await the final investigation results. It stressed its full commitment to safeguarding security and stability across Misrata and the wider region.

The explosion occurred on Sunday in the Skerirat area, sparking a massive fire inside the storage facility. Firefighters and emergency crews were immediately dispatched to the site. Working alongside local security and service departments, the Joint Operations Force managed to bring the fire under control and prevent further escalation that could have endangered civilians and nearby infrastructure.

The incident resulted in minor injuries among residents, but no major casualties were reported, according to the force’s statement. The fire had raised concerns among Misrata’s population due to its proximity to residential areas and the potential risk of secondary explosions.

The Joint Operations Force praised the efforts of firefighters, paramedics and security units who worked collectively to contain the flames and secure the area. It also called on the public to exercise caution, follow safety instructions, and avoid approaching suspicious objects that could pose a threat.

Authorities are expected to continue technical assessments in the coming days to determine the precise cause of the explosion. The incident has reignited debates over the storage of ammunition depots in urban areas, with residents urging stricter safety measures to avoid similar accidents in the future.
