The UN Independent Fact-Finding Mission on Libya has concluded its fifth investigative mission to the country, an extended field visit to Tripoli which took place from 20 October to 21 November. The mission was the FFM’s first to Libya since the Human Rights Council extended its mandate from July 2022 to March 2023. During the mission, investigators met with and interviewed witnesses, civil society organizations and women human rights defenders. FFM Libya has also not received permission from local authorities to visit the city of Sebha, despite repeated requests. FFM Libya will continue its work in Libya, and will report to the Human Rights Council at its session in March 2023.
