Our concerns
- Persistent violations of international humanitarian law, including air strikes by Haftar's ANL against civilian targets;
- Systematic violations of human rights by all parties to the conflict, in particular arbitrary arrests, torture, and secret detentions;
- Absence of independent complaints or monitoring mechanisms and failure to prosecute those responsible for abuses, fostering a climate of complete impunity.
