Sabha, Libya
Sabha or Sebha () is an oasis city in southwestern Libya, approximately south of Tripoli. It was historically the capital of the Fezzan region and the Fezzan-Ghadames Military Territory and is the capital of the Sabha District. Sabha Air Base, south of the city, is a Libyan Air Force installation that is home to multiple MiG-25 aircraft. Sabha was where the erstwhile ruler of Libya, Muammar Gaddafi, grew up and received secondary education and where he also later became involved in political activism. After the Libyan Civil War and the resultant instability in the country, Sabha reportedly grew in importance as a slave auctioning town. However, an investigation by the National Commission for Human Rights in Libya (NCHRL) revealed that while there was illegal slavery, reports were exaggerated, as slave auctions were rare and not made public. The city was seized by forces loyal to the Libyan National Army (LNA) and its leader Khalifa Haftar in January 2019, but some politic ...

Battle Of Sabha
The Battle of Sabha was a part of the Libyan Civil War and took place between forces loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and rebel anti-Gaddafi forces for the control of the desert oasis city of Sabha. It was the second conflict in the city since the start of the war after the 2011 Sabha clashes. Background Sabha is located by an oasis in the Libyan Desert and is home to an important military base. Much of its population comprises migrants from Chad, Niger, and Sudan. These migrants had been brought to Libya by Gaddafi in the 1980s and given employment and stipends by the regime to ensure their support. In addition, the city is home to a large number of members of the Qadhadhfa tribe, to which Gaddafi belonged.
