Petition: Urge Libya’s Rival Governments to Collaborate and Manage Flood Crisis

In the eastern Libyan city of Derna, a catastrophic flood has claimed at least 3,900 lives, with thousands more still missing. The flood was made worse by the failure of two poorly maintained dams, leading to protests and widespread public outrage against negligent officials. This is not just a natural disaster; it’s a catastrophic failure of governance.

Since 2014, Libya has been divided between two rival governments in the east and west. Both governments have pledged to help with rescue efforts in the flood-affected areas, but they have never successfully collaborated before.

Please sign this petition to urge the rival Libyan governments to set aside their differences and cooperate to effectively manage the Derna flood crisis!
