Libyan government acts to secure power
Libya's Prime Minister, Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh, issued urgent directives to regain control of the Melita Industrial Complex and secure it. This follows the closure of gas lines within the complex and a warning from the electricity company about a potential complete power outage. The defense forces and the General Staff were instructed to act immediately to restore the flow of gas to power plants, ensuring operational continuity and preventing widespread blackout. The government emphasized that oil, gas, and electricity facilities are sovereign assets subject solely to state authority, and any attempt to disrupt them will face decisive legal action. It reaffirmed its commitment to asserting sovereignty over vital installations and preventing any threats to energy security or national stability. Additionally, the National Oil Corporation announced the resumption of oil production at the Al-Fil and Al-Wafa fields, despite the risks of a complete electrical shutoff due to the closure of fuel lines at the complex—an action taken in response to protests over the electricity crisis and the halt of operations at the complex.
