High State Council Criticizes Libyan Unity Government Over Power Crisis
The repeated power outages in Libya have intensified the dispute between the Chairman of the High Council of State, Mohammed Tekala, and the Head of the National Unity Government, Abdul Hamid Dbeibah. Tekala criticized the government over its management of the electricity sector, which has been collapsing for a week and has worsened due to soaring temperatures. The crisis has caused damage including the destruction of dozens of wells belonging to the Great Man-Made River, affecting water supplies, leading to protests and property damage. It has also resulted in the shutdown of the Serrir and Tazirbu fields’ wells, with power outages repeatedly halting the operation of the water system across large areas. The High Council of State called for a comprehensive investigation into the causes of the shortcomings, considering the crisis as a sign of administrative failure that needs correction. Meanwhile, maintenance teams are working to restore power and improve the electricity network, which has suffered near-total collapse and caused losses estimated at 1,350 megawatts of production capacity.
