Protests have erupted across Tripoli, with demonstrators blocking major roads, shutting down state institutions, and sealing off government buildings.
The unrest, which intensified on Sunday night and continued into Monday, is driven by severe power outages that have left residents without electricity for up to 14 hours a day.
Temperatures in the region have reached as high as 50 degrees Celsius, exacerbating the crisis and fueling public anger.
The demonstrations have quickly evolved beyond complaints about infrastructure failures.
Protesters are now calling for the removal of Prime Minister Abdulhamid Dbeibah's government, signaling a potential shift from civil unrest to a broader political challenge.
The combination of extreme weather and grid failure has created a volatile environment, with the government's ability to maintain order and provide basic services under scrutiny.
