  • Gaddafi Supporters Since 2011
    Country Policy and Information Note Libya: Actual or perceived supporters of former President Gaddafi Version 3.0 April 2019 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the basis of claim section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment on whether, in general: • A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • Claims are likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must, however, still consider all claims on an individual basis, taking into account each case’s specific facts. Country of origin information The country information in this note has been carefully selected in accordance with the general principles of COI research as set out in the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation’s (ACCORD), Researching Country Origin Information – Training Manual, 2013.

It began with protests against the leadership of Colonel Muammar al- Gaddafi, with the Libyan leader responding by ordering his troops and supporters to crush the uprising in a televised speech, which escalated the country into armed conflict. The unrest began in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi, with the eastern Cyrenaica region in opposition control by February 23 and opposition supporters forming the Interim National Transitional Council on February 27.

It was in 1934, after the completion of the Italian conquest of Cyrenaica and Tripolitania, that the two provinces were united under Italian over-rule as the colony of Libia. The independent State that was established in 1951 kept that name as the one associated with the region from ancient times. The political divisions of the former provinces of Cyrenaica, Tripolitania, and Fezzan corresponded with the country's natural physical barriers and differences. Geography had made the ancient affiliations of the two coastal regions dissimilar - Cyrenaica's early history was influenced by Greece and Egypt, whereas Tripolitania fell under Rome and was close to Tunisia. The Arab invasions had unifying effects on the population, as did the Turkish occupation in the sixteenth century. But the three provinces were never closely unified,and successive foreign powers, whether they controlled all of modern Libya or only parts of it, generally continued to follow the natural divisions of the country in the shape of their administrations.

  • UNHCR Operation
    3 Update no 28 Humanitarian Situation in Libya and the Neighbouring Countries 10 June 2011 LIBYA UNHCR staff visited conflict zones south and east of the Libyan capital Tripoli last week and found significant displacement, widespread violence and an urgent need to support Libyan organizations in providing basic supplies and services. UNHCR participated in two inter-agency missions - the first to Tripoli and displacement sites in government controlled areas near the Misrata frontline (Zlitan and Al Khums) and the Nafusa Mountain front-line area of Gharian; the second mission was to the opposition-controlled city of Misrata. The teams saw both sides of the battle lines as well as efforts to maintain support for those affected by the conflict. The mission also heard reports of partiality in the delivery of assistance. UNHCR could not verify these reports. In Zlitan, al Khums and Gharian, the Libyan Government has primary responsibility to respond to the needs of an estimated 49,000 displaced people in the Tripoli/Zlitan region. Displaced people with whom UNHCR met seem to be coping, albeit under difficult circumstances. Most are housed in hotels, dormitories and seaside homes. They are being provided with assistance by the Government and some private charities. However, an aid crisis could be looming. Despite the fact that warehouses are currently well stocked with basic food items it is apparent that the combined impact of protracted conflict and sanctions are eroding the Government’s ability to effectively deliver assistance. The view of the inter-agency mission was that if this situation continues, international aid is likely to be needed in a matter of weeks.

Se exponen los antecedentes inmediatos que originaron las hostilidades, así como las partes enfrentadas y su respectiva valoración de potenciales. Se aborda, igualmente, la significativa participación de laotan (en cabeza, principalmente, de Estados Unidos., Reino Unido y Francia) en cumpli- miento de las resoluciones emitidas por el Consejo de Seguridad de las Naciones Unidas, evidenciando la clara alianza militar entre actores estatales y no estatales, que finalmente derrocaron al régimen tras la muerte del dictador. Finalmente, se cierra con un recorrido cronológico a través del desarrollo de la campaña militar, para concluir, a través de una breve discusión, con las implicaciones de esta intervención en la seguridad internacional y, en particular, en la denominada ‘responsabilidad de proteger’.

  • Dissertation Isotope and Noble Gas Study of Three
    DISSERTATION ISOTOPE AND NOBLE GAS STUDY OF THREE AQUIFERS IN CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST LIBYA Submitted by Mohamed S. E. Al Faitouri Department of Geosciences In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2013 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: William Sanford Michael Ronayne Steven Fassnacht Reagan Waskom Copyright by Mohamed S. E. Al Faitouri 2013 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT ISOTOPE AND NOBLE GAS STUDY OF THREE AQUIFERS IN CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST LIBYA Libya suffers from a shortage in water resources due to its arid climate. The annual precipitation in Libya is less than 200 mm in the narrow coastal plain, while the southern part of the country receives less than 1mm. On the other hand, Libya has large resources of good quality groundwater distributed in six basin systems beneath the Sahara. In 1983, the Libyan government established the Great Man-Made River Authority (GMRA) in order to transport 6.5 million cubic meters a day of this groundwater to the coastal cities, where over 90% of the population lives. This large water extraction of one million cubic meters per day (or greater) from each wellfield has the potential to greatly stress the water resources in these areas. This study focuses on three GMRA wellfields in two sedimentary basins (Sirt and Al Kufra) in central and southeast Libya. The Sarir wellfield is located within the Sirt basin and consists of 126 production wells; the Tazerbo wellfield in the Al Kufra basin has 108 wells; and the proposed Al Kufra wellfield is also in the Al Kufra Basin and will have 300 production wells.

  • The Persistence of Colonialism
    The Persistence of Colonialism A Century of Italo-Libyan Relationships and Their Influence on the Current European Migration Regime in the Mediterranean (1911–2017) Mathias Hatleskog Tjønn Master Thesis in Modern International and Transnational History, at the Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History, Spring 2019 university of oslo Preface The first person I owe a heartfelt thank you to, is my supervisor Patrick Bernhard. You gave me the impetus to hit the ground running and you have been a solid supporter ever since. I cannot claim to have reached anywhere near the high literary standards of either novelist, but I hope the thesis stays somewhat true to you suggestion of “more Heming- way, less Proust” in terms of its prose. I was also fortunate to have Elisabetta Cassina Wolff as my supervisor, who supplied much needed insight into Italian politics and history. At prio I could rely on Maria Gabrielsen Jumbert for further supervision. Your perspective, input and inspiration were greatly appreciated. Before deciding to enroll in the mitra program I spoke with both Johannes Due and Jørgen Jensehaugen. Thank you for the real talk and continued encouragement, gentlemen. Among the mitra faculty, particularly Daniel Maul, Klaus Nathaus and Kim Priemel deserve a tip of the hat. Of my fellow students I want to above all thank Lars Magne Tungland and Siw Ellen Lien Rysstad for our conversations. I would like to extend a warm thank you to Martin Baumeister, Sandra Heisel, Patricia Kern, Lutz Klinkhammer and Elisa Ritzmann as well as all their colleagues at the German Historical Institute in Rome, for giving me the opportunity to work with and learn from you.

RANCK Curator, Mammal Identification Service Division of Mammals, U.S. National Museum SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS WASHINGTON, D.C. 1968 Publications of the United States National Museum The scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series are published original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of the Museum and setting forth newly acquired facts in the field of anthropology, biology, geology, history, and technology. Copies of each publication are distributed .to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists and others interested in the various subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902, papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions from the United States National Herbarium. This work forms number 275 of the Bulletin series. Frank A. Taylor Director, United States National Museum U.S.
