Understanding Libya’s Relentless Destabilization
After militant groups refused to disarm, they along with their allies began to contest territory and control over Libya’s fragile new national institutions. A large Turkish and part-Turkish minority also live throughout Libya’s major cities, particularly in the city of Misrata. This move partly incorporated elements of Libya’s political Islamic factions. The HoR is led by former General Khalifa Haftar, who commands the Libyan National Army (LNA). Egypt has been one of the HoR’s most crucial allies, providing weapons, military support, and safe haven through Libya’s eastern border.

Libya after Muammar Gaddafi
It has been more than a decade since Libyan head of the state for 42 years Muammar Gaddafi was toppled in a public uprising. Despite his bravado the last days of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi are a grisly story of defiance, defeat and death. By August, however, Muammar Gaddafi his inner circle disappeared and this exodus was spearheaded by Musa Koussa his foreign minister and long-time associate who surreptitiously arrived in London and was promptly dispatched to Qatar where he was housed under guard. He was suspected to be a double agent working both for Muammar Gaddafi and the West. Muammar Gaddafi’s regime refused to yield to the demands of the protestors and began using force on a large scale to suppress them compelling the UN to declare Libya a no-flying zone.

CORTEXR Launches XR Data Analytics Tool
XR data analytics firm CORTEXR has launched its platform on Tuesday to standardise virtual, augmented, and mixed reality (VR/AR/MR) technologies as well as the Metaverse. The new tool leverages cognitive science and artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor six degrees of freedom (6DoF) behaviours and movements such as attention, immersion, and navigation in virtual spaces. The announcement comes just after three years of research and development (R&D) and beta testing with several global firms, leading to a unified solution for monitoring data analytics for the Metaverse. Gaming engine plugins would gather sensor data from numerous devices and headsets and analyse spatial data in real-time via the cloud, with measurements recorded and viewed in bespoke dashboards. Eye, gaze, and hand-tracking were also key to learning user behaviours and interactions with immersive content, the survey continued.

Egyptian cleric revered by Muslim Brotherhood dies at 96
DOHA, Qatar (AP) — Youssef al-Qaradawi, an Egyptian cleric who was seen as the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and became the Islamist “voice of revolution” during the popular uprisings around the Arab world more than a decade ago, died Monday at the age of 96. He studied at Egypt’s Al-Azhar University, the leading center of Sunni Muslim scholarship, and became involved with the Brotherhood. A U.S. diplomatic cable from 2005 published by WikiLeaks said Qatar, a strong backer of the Brotherhood, gave al-Qaradawi “substantial properties" and income. In Egypt, al-Qaradawi threw his weight fully behind the Brotherhood-led government, headed by a veteran of the group, Mohammed Morsi. Ahmed Mussa, a prominent pro-government TV host, called al-Qaradawi “the biggest inciter of terrorism” and blamed him for attacks inside Egypt.
