LIBYA is a country in disarray, a war zone battled over by two opposing proxy factions, jihadists, strongmen and human traffickers.
In the last week, 30 migrants were gunned down in a smuggling warehouse in an apparent revenge attack for the killing of a human trafficker, and at least nine refugee boats in distress in the Mediterranean contacted the activist network Alarm Phone.
