On August 9, 2024, Pro-government and Anti-government militias clashed in Tripoli.[5] Another clash happened on 17 July 2024[6]. Those clashes still continues and there's a potential for another civil war which already occurred in 2011 and between 2014 and 2020.[7][8][9]
Background
editHaftar's Armed Forces launched an unsuccessful campaign to capture Western Libya & Tripoli and being the president of the Libya.[10][11][12] Haftar's forces had to withdraw from the region with suffering heavy losses.[13] Haftar's forces massacred civilians during the withdraw.[13]
After the Haftar's campaign, UN recognized[14] Government of National Accord launched a counter-offensive in 6 June.[15] Both sides could not gain superiority over the other one. After the stalemate, belligerents signed a ceasefire.[16]
After these battles, peace progresses began. Permanent ceasefire signed on December 24, 2020 and Government of National Accord and Tobruk-based government merged and Government of National Unity created in April 2021.[17]
Even though civil war ended in 2020, there were some other clashes in 2022 and in 2023.
Crisis
editOn 9 August 2024, Pro-government and Anti-government militias had fought in Tajoura, Tripoli.[5] The clash resulted with at least 9 deaths and 16 woundeds.[5] The next day, militia clashes briefly occurred in the Qali Bulla area, east of Tajoura. It comes after clashes also occurred in Tajoura in July, reportedly resulting in three deaths.[18]
In 17 August, Rahbat al-Dur'a Battalion and members of the Shaheda Sabreya Battalion clashed in Tripoli.[6]
Official of the Central Bank of Libya has been hijacted in August 2024 and Libyan central bank suspended its operations.[19] In 20 August, another clash happened Chadian rebels and Haftar's 128th brigade in Chad-Libya border.[20]
Pro-Haftar members in the Libyan parliament gave vote to end Dbeibah's government.[21]
These incidents mark an alarming escalation in a country that has experienced relative calm since a UN-brokered ceasefire in October 2020, and create a new civil war in Libya.[7][18]
