The Gulf of Sidra Offensive was an offensive of the Second Libyan Civil War. It was launched by the Benghazi Defense Brigades on 3 March 2017, and initially resulted in them taking control of a strip of coastal territory between the towns of Nofaliya and Ras Lanuf, which was then handed over to the Government of National Accord. A number of significant oil ports are located in this area, sometimes referred to as the Oil Crescent. The loss of the Oil Crescent was perceived by analysts as a major blow to the power of Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar.

  • The Gulf of Sidra Offensive was an offensive of the Second Libyan Civil War. It was launched by the Benghazi Defense Brigades on 3 March 2017, and initially resulted in them taking control of a strip of coastal territory between the towns of Nofaliya and Ras Lanuf, which was then handed over to the Government of National Accord. A number of significant oil ports are located in this area, sometimes referred to as the Oil Crescent. The loss of the Oil Crescent was perceived by analysts as a major blow to the power of Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar. On 14 March, the LNA recaptured all positions lost to the Benghazi Defence and Misratan Brigades in a counter-offensive after several days of aerial bombardment. (en)

  • A Ofensiva sobre o Crescente Petrolífero foi uma ofensiva militar ocorrida durante a Segunda Guerra Civil Líbia, lançada pelas Brigadas de Defesa de Bengazi em 3 de março de 2017 e que resultou na tomada de controle de uma faixa de território costeiro entre as cidades de Nofaliya e Ras Lanuf, que foram então entregues ao Governo do Acordo Nacional. Vários portos petrolíferos significativos estão localizados nesta área, mais conhecida como Crescente Petrolífero. A perda do Crescente Petrolífero foi percebida por analistas como um grande revés para o poder do Marechal Khalifa Haftar. Em 14 de março, o Exército Nacional Líbio recuperou todas as posições perdidas para as Brigadas de Defesa de Bengazi e para as Brigadas de Misrata em uma contra-ofensiva após vários dias de bombardeio aéreo.
