Libya minors recruitment persists

The issue of child recruitment in Libya has once again come to the forefront amid escalating domestic and international criticism due to the spread of the phenomenon linked to political divisions and the escalation of armed groups. Reports indicate the detection of cases involving the recruitment of children aged between 16 and 17 years, even though Libyan law sets the age of recruitment at only 18. These cases are mainly in conflict zones and among armed groups, where children are sometimes offered salaries of up to 1,000 dinars per month. The increase in recruitment and polarization is attributed to economic factors such as poverty and poor living conditions, as well as motivations related to belonging and power. The international community is calling for the enactment of strict laws criminalizing the recruitment and involvement of children in conflicts, emphasizing the importance of addressing the political and economic roots that facilitate the exploitation of children.
