Libyans worry over weapons near homes

Weapons and ammunition depots located within residential neighborhoods in Misrata are among the main dangers facing the "Unity" government in western Libya. The area recently witnessed an explosion at a storage site operated by an armed group calling itself the "Hurricane Brigade," which caused panic among residents and recalled previous explosions that resulted in injuries and fatalities. Despite a prior decision to evacuate these depots, they still remain close to homes, posing a threat to civilians' lives and increasing the likelihood of further incidents, especially as they continue to be spread despite both international and local calls to move them away from residential areas. The report highlights the weakness of government measures and the proliferation of unregulated weapons since Gaddafi's fall, with approximately 20 million firearms in the country, along with the ongoing danger posed by landmines and explosive devices, which have claimed hundreds of victims since 2020.
