its citizens. However, Libyan government ignored these resolutions, and it continuedto attack their citizens to control the state. Effective action by the UN was not takenuntil 17 March 2011, when the Resolution 1973 was adopted. In the Resolution 1973,protection of civilians, no fly zone, enforcement of the arms embargo, ban on flights,asset freeze were agreed (UNSC, 2011b). Under Resolution 1973, NATO attackedto Libya.
