Anti-Government Protest Set for Friday in Libyan Capital

The Sons of Souq Al-Jumaa Movement has called for a mass protest in front of the headquarters of Libya's Government of National Unity (GNU) led by Prime Minister Abdulhamid Dbaiba. In a statement released on Tuesday, the movement urged 'all free Libyans' to participate in a large-scale demonstration on Friday outside the Prime Minister's Office on Al-Sikka Road in Tripoli. The organisers say the protest is a response to alleged normalisation with Israel, widespread corruption, and 'crimes committed against civilians'. 'It is time to speak with one voice: No to normalisation, no to corruption, no to the government of blood and shame,' the statement read. The group accused the GNU of 'betraying the sacrifices of the nation's martyrs' and of failing to protect civilians. It also described the government as a 'gang' that is 'selling the homeland and silencing dissent'. The movement called on men and women, young and old, to take to the streets and demand the immediate removal of the Dbeibah government. It also called for accountability for all those allegedly involved in crimes against civilians, and firmly rejected 'any attempt to drag Libya into foreign occupation or dependency'. The planned protest comes amid rising political tensions and public dissatisfaction with governance in western Libya. The GNU has not yet responded to the statement. While the GNU maintains it is working to stabilise the country and hold elections, critics have increasingly voiced concerns over its legitimacy, transparency, and international alignments.
