Libya grapples with worsening blackout

Large areas in western Libya have experienced a complete power outage as a result of a sudden collapse in the distribution network, leading to the shutdown of entire cities and important facilities such as Mitiga International Airport in the midst of a severe heatwave with temperatures reaching 43 degrees Celsius. Reports indicate that the fault was caused by a severe disturbance in the network, coinciding with the failure of transmission circuits, in addition to technical malfunctions and external interventions, which led to a collapse in the stability of the electrical grid. The electricity company is conducting a comprehensive technical investigation to determine the causes of the outage and to gradually restore power, emphasizing transparency in the investigation results. In an attempt to contain popular anger, an equitable load shedding plan has been implemented, excluding vital facilities. Meanwhile, some citizens resorted to force to attempt to restore power, expressing discontent over the exemption of residences belonging to leaders of armed groups. Government and military efforts continue to address the crisis and formulate urgent plans to ensure the stability of the electrical system.
