Al Jufra Air Base (FAA LID: HL69) is a Libyan Air Force base located near Al Jufra.

The MiG-23S, MiG-25, TU-22s and other strike aircraft at this base represent the primary aircraft available to Gadhafi loyalists being used to attack rebel forces in the East.

The base was attacked by French aircraft on March 24th, 2011. Future updated satellite imagery will likely show the effectiveness of these strikes.
