Abstract:
The Libyan crisis, which began in February 2011, culminated in the collapse of the Qaddafi regime. On 24 August 2011, rebel factions eventually pushed into Tripoli, the Libyan capital, a development that many commentators believe marks the beginning of the end of the 42-years old regime. As at the time of writing, the whereabouts of Qaddafi remain unknown.
