It all started when there were
numerous protesters as
anti-authority demonstrations
occurred in Benghazi; in Libya,
an uprising in opposition to the
four-decade rule of Muammar
al-Qaddafi led to civil warfare and
international military
intervention.

It all began while the
residents were been angered
through the arrest of a human
rights lawyer, Fethi Tarbel.
The protesters known as for
Qaddafi to step down and for
the release of political
prisoners; as a result, protests
broke out and it was all hectic.

This is a more
government-relate issue, due
to the fact that a lawyer was
arrested, and citizens of
Northern Africa were
protesting and urging the
government to free him.

GROUPS INVOLVED

with the forces preventing

long-status tribal warfare with
the neighbouring Warshefana

The Libyan Civil War
commenced on 15 February
2011 as a sequence of civil
protests and later developed
into a widespread uprising in
opposition to the regime of
Muammar Gaddafi.

On 25 February, most of
japanese Libya became said
to be below the control of
protesters and insurrection
forces.

CONSEQUENCES

13
Effects on People

The direct humanitarian


impact of the Libyan Civil War
is that hundreds of thousands
of people across the country
are now living in an unsafe
environment.

14
Effects on the Economy

After 2000, Libya recorded


favourable growth rates with
an expected 10.6% increase
of GDP in 2010. This
development became
interrupted through the
Libyan Civil War, which led to
contraction of the economy
with the aid of 62.1% in 2011.

15
Number of Casualties

Estimates of deaths inside the


Libyan Civil War range with
figures from 2,500 to 25,000
given among March 2 and
October 2, 2011. An exact
determine is hard to ascertain,
partly due to a media
clamp-down with the aid of the
Libyan government. Some
conservative estimates had been
released.

16
Atrocities

The outbreak of the Libyan Civil


War was followed by way of
accusations of human rights
violations by using rebellion
forces opposed to Muammar
Gaddafi, Gaddafi's armed forces,
and NATO. The alleged violations
include rape, extrajudicial
killings, ethnic cleansing,
misconduct and bombings of
civilians.

17
Impact on the U.S.

American involvement
within the Libyan Civil War
to begin with consisted of
diplomatic projects and
sanctions.

18
HOW IT SHOULD BE
RESOLVED

19
I personally believe both sides
should come up with an
agreement rather than
fighting with war; which
results in others dying.
Coming up with an agreement
is a non violent way of solving
the situation.
