Al-Dibya restarts gas supply amid protests
The Libyan capital, Tripoli, experienced a widespread power and gas outage crisis as a result of angry protests that led to demonstrators taking control of the Melita oil complex and halting gas production, causing a severe energy crisis. Government forces managed to take control of and secure the complex, and gas pumping operations gradually resumed, helping to restore supplies and improve the situation of the electricity grid. At the same time, protests also erupted in other parts of Tripoli, such as Tajoura and Souq Al-Juma, signaling a civil disobedience movement demanding better services and an end to deteriorating living conditions. The crisis is viewed as part of an escalation in popular anger against the government due to fuel shortages, daily power cuts that can last up to 12 hours, and increasing political and security tensions across the country. Security and government officials have called for urgent solutions to address the electricity crisis, while protests and mass mobilizations continue, demanding the ousting of the government and the formation of a unified authority.
