Events in Libya in 2020
In January 2020, Turkey sent troops and electronic warfare tools to Libya to defend the existing government there.[3][4] Several countries protested against Turkey's actions including Greece, France, Egypt, and the United States.[35][7][8]
In July, the United States said it had verifiable photographs showing Russia has sent weapons, air defense systems, and mercenaries to Libya. Russia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, and France support Khalifa Hifter's forces. Turkey has sent arms and Syrian mercenaries to back the government of Tripoli.[36]
Khalifa Hifter threatened to use force against Turkish troops after the Turkish parliament extended authorization that allows the deployment of Turkish troops to Libya for another 18 months starting December 2020.[37]
