Bani Walid (Anglicized: ; (アラビア語:بني وليد) ', Libyan pronunciation: (:ˈbæni wæˈliːd)) is a town in Libya. Prior to 2007, it was the capital of Bani Walid District. Bani Walid has an airport. Under the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, it was divided into two Basic People's Congresses: Dahra - Bani Walid (), and Zaytouna - Bani Walid (). It is the home to the Warfalla tribe, the only city in which only one tribe resides. A campus of Misrata University is located in Bani Walid.〔(University Profile ), Misrata University website, accessed 13 February 2011〕〔(RMJM Chosen to Work on Two University Campuses in Libya ), ''The Tripoli Post'', 7 September 2008〕 ==Libyan civil war== (詳細はLibyan Civil War, after the anti-Gaddafi forces captured Tripoli in August and Sabha in September, Bani Walid, along with Sirte, was one of two final strongholds held by forces loyal to the ousted Gaddafi regime. There were clashes between anti-Gaddafi forces surrounding the city and Gaddafi loyalists defending it throughout September and early October; the city was finally taken on 17 October. Finnish company Perusyhtymä (today YIT) constructed in the 1980s a factory in the city used for the assembly of rifles and possibly other weapons. NATO reported that it had hit two “command hubs” in the city and one ammunition dump. It is possible that the latter had originally been built by Finns. 200 Finnish engineers and other experts worked in Bani Walid. Some had their families in the area. The "dirty jobs" were done by ca 2,000 cheap labourers from the Philippines.〔(Libyan rebels search for Gaddafi in desert city partly built by FinnsWeapons factory camouflaged as a school ) Helsingin Sanomat 31.8.2011〕 In Finland the media found out the construction of the weapon factory in 1994 and 2011. In the 1980s Libya was the second-largest country of export for the Finnish construction industry right after the Soviet Union. In the early 1980s Finns had about 20 major construction projects in Libya. In addition to weapon factory other Finnish constructions include streets in Tripoli and the entire oil city of Ras Lanuf. A large number of Libyan architects have been trained with Finnish help. Construction export became more difficult after the UN set up a trade embargo in 1992. As late as 2008 a shopping complex designed by Finns was being built 〔(Built by Finns - in Libya ) Helsingin Sanomat 7.11.2013〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bani Walid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
