I dont think the UAE will re-ignite the fight rn
They will just slowly convince the current government on the financial abilities and political connections they have while waiting for turkey to pull out and then they will restart the war

Turkey won't pull out.

Only a mug gambles on winning military victories when your general is Haftar.

Nothing you can do about that
You still dont realise how much money the fqing gulf has..... especially in the hands of the UAE-KSA axis
It isnt that turkey is late in libya; it is just that the current libyan president needs money to restore the country, needs money to rebuild what was destroyed, needs to suck up to the UAE for libya's oil and to win the next presedential election. There is just too much the UAE can give that turkey cant
I predicted this situation from when the ceasefire was signed
None can resist the allure of shitloads of money
And turkey will never have this capability; neither now nor in the near future (not under the AKP or even the CHP or even any other party as turkey consumes a lot)
That is why i was in favour of complete annihilation of the UAE side even if it involved fighting egypt

How would they make Turkey leave ? with what army lol

Is below article true?

Was a flying killer robot used in Libya?
Quite possibly


Source

Last year in Libya, a Turkish-made autonomous weapon
—the STM Kargu-2 drone—may have “hunted down
and remotely engaged” retreating soldiers
loyal to the Libyan General Khalifa Haftar,
according to a recent report by the UN Panel of Experts on Libya.

Over the course of the year,
the UN-recognized Government of National Accord
pushed the general’s forces back from the capital Tripoli,
signaling that it had gained the upper hand
in the Libyan conflict,

but the Kargu-2 signifies something perhaps
even more globally significant:
a new chapter in autonomous weapons,
one in which they are used to fight and kill human beings
based on artificial intelligence.

The Kargu is a “loitering” drone that
can use machine learning-based object classification
to select and engage targets,
with swarming capabilities in development
to allow 20 drones to work together.

The UN report calls the Kargu-2 a lethal autonomous weapon.
It’s maker, STM, touts the weapon’s “anti-personnel” capabilities
in a grim video showing a Kargu model
in a steep dive toward a target in the middle of a group of manikins.

(If anyone was killed in an autonomous attack,
it would likely represent an historic first known case
of artificial intelligence-based autonomous weapons
being used to kill.

The UN report heavily implies they were,
noting that lethal autonomous weapons systems
contributed to significant casualties of the
manned Pantsir S-1 surface-to-air missile system,
but is not explicit on the matter.)

Kargu has a autonomous navigation capability. No autonomous targeting. It is an supervised system. There has to be an human in the loop. These news are not correct.

Kargu-2 is categorized as a man-in-the-loop system. It has autonomous navigation capability but targeting is done by a user. The current range is 10km with plans to improve up to 25km. It can be deployed in swarms of up to 20 units with a plan to increase the number to 100.

This is just semantics as I understand what you try to say but Kargu has automatic targeting or target detection of both humans and vehicles to be more correct. It also have automatic target tracking as seen by numerous videos shared by STM. According to the supplier, a human is actively needed for the engagement of a specific target as you write.

However, it should not be to difficult to re-write the software to engage all moving soldiers/vehicles within a specific region like a military base when operated in swarm mode. Such software could have some serious benefit as actively tracking a base like Al-Watiya with a 100-200 soldiers can be time critical. A few waves of these swarms would effectively suppress any outdoor activity and render the base defenseless for ground attacks.

Finally, you are correct that the recent articles are just FUD propaganda to create a bad image of Turkey in the west.

In my opinion,
nothing wrong if this is true.

Why every country must obey
war rules set by Western?

Even at the past,
they breached their own rules.

It can targeting/tracking autonomous. But not eliminating autonomous.

We better get to work then. Aim for an era where war for Turkey will be about pressing a button and letting the war machines get to work.
This is a dangerous area. Currently it is hard to make the differentiation between friendly or foe or civilian.

If we had camera surveillance system registering faces. And we could feed the ai with a wishlist with faces we could feed the kargu to automatic hunt doen those on the list

It can search and classify targets on its own and alert the user.

It can track, follow and attack targets selected by the user. The user must select the target for the system to track, follow, and/or attack.

Algerian President Tebboune paves the way for the Algerian army to serve in foreign military missions. • Tebboune announced that Algeria is ready to send troops to Libya and Mali.


@Chakib larbi What is your take on these news brother?
its not clear yet about mali ...but As for Libya, it is certain. the president announced a few days ago to the Qatari channel Al-Jazeera ... Any new threat from Haftar regarding the occupation of Tripoli ... the Algerian army will face it directly by hitting Haftar's forces....There is a great coordination with the Turks about the situation in libya ... especially the threats coming from Haftar

Looks like the recent authorisation for military operations on foreign lands is a sign of the awakening of Algeria's power and its projection in the region.

Thank you for your valuable insight brother. I hope coordination and joint initiatives intensify and deepen the Turkey-Algeria friendship.
