Libya's Tripoli Back to Calm After Bout of Deadly Violence
- Deadly clashes erupted in Tripoli starting late Monday, 2025, following the killing of Abdelghani al-Kikli by the 444 Brigade aligned with the Tripoli government.
- The unrest erupted against the backdrop of persistent divisions in Libya, which have persisted following the 2011 uprising supported by NATO that ousted Muammar Gaddafi and left the nation divided between competing governments.
- The clashes involved militias supporting the Tripoli administration attempting to eliminate rival factions such as the Radaa force, resulting in heavy artillery bombardment in densely inhabited neighborhoods.
- At least eight civilians died, local authorities reported barricades and rubble blocked streets, and UNSMIL noted a truce on Thursday with an interior official saying residents slept without gunfire.
- The truce allowed flights and business to resume on Friday, but Amnesty International urged militia leaders to be held accountable, and fears of renewed violence remain.
