 LIBYA ENGAGES IN JAMMING WAR |
|
LONDON [MENL] -- Libya has waged a jamming war against the West in a
successful effort to stop an opposition radio station.So far, British and U.S. officials said, Libya has succeeded in
disrupting U.S. military communications in the Mediterranean Sea. The
jamming also blocked dozens of television and radio stations in Europe.Officials said the confrontation began in September when a British-based
opposition radio station began to broadcast to Libya. The station, Voice of
Libya, was meant to be a commercial enterprise that reported human rights
violations by the regime of Col. Moammar Khaddafy.Within minutes of its launch, the radio station as well as other
broadcast networks were jammed. Officials said the jamming ended when the
Voice of Libya went off the air.
