Many remained unaware of the encroaching storm until a mandatory curfew was implemented, forcing people to stay home as the storm came in, without mentioning anything about evacuations. This ongoing feud has resulted in many things going unnoticed within the area, leaving many feeling like prominent issues like infrastructure were deprioritized in favor of alternatives. The result of this longstanding feud, in part, is the lack of attention broadcast to the dams. The floods ravaging Libya resulted from decades of build-up within two slowly eroding facilities, showing cracks and fissures before its collapse, which could have been fixed. Though the conflict is over, the fight is just beginning when it comes to rebuilding Libya’s destroyed infrastructure and re-instilling faith in the government—so stay tuned and informed!

On 11 September, massive floods created by Storm Daniel ruptured two dams built in the Seventies to protect Derna in eastern Libya, exposing its denizens to unstoppable torrents of water. Such analysis of Libya as a “failed state” is a longstanding characterisation in the West, and has similarly been revived in recent months as an explanation for the renewed flow of refugees to Europe. Sign inBut while blaming this on the breakdown of governance in Libya is a logical first step, we mustn’t stop there. The resolution authorised a military operation — led by Nato but including states outside the alliance — whose remit was to protect Libyan civilians. But the countries that spearheaded the 2011 intervention were not nearly as enthusiastic about the former as they were about the latter.
