2011[edit]
After a week of protests calling for the overthrow of Libyan Head of State Muammar al-Gaddafi, events in Libya escalated dramatically. The town of Tawergha was emptied of its entire population as the inhabitants were either killed or forced to flee. Tens of thousands are now living in different parts of Libya and are unable to return as relations between the Tawergha people and people of Misratah remain tense. In addition to the deaths, there have been abductions and the rape of women and children.
