The United Nations highlighted its efforts to clear unexploded ordnance in Misrata, Libya. Over the course of nine months, more than 14,000 explosive items were removed from the Suwaniya farm, aiming to protect civilians from the dangers of unintended explosions. The mission emphasized that unsafe storage practices and the proximity of weapons to residential areas increase the risk of explosions, which have resulted in 175 deaths and 312 injuries since May 2020. Libya still has approximately 20 million weapons stored across the country following the fall of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime. The UN underlined the importance of strengthening national capacities in weapons and ammunition management, as well as raising awareness about the risks, especially in light of recurring explosions that raise concerns about the safety of the population.
