#Hospitals also lack equipment, water and family to host the potential flow of patients and this puts the medical staff at risk of infection, especially women since they constitute the majority of nursing staff, we mention here the violent bombing of the Libyan armed forces of the birth wing Green is healing, causing health worker injury and damage to hospital facilities.

While #curfew can already contribute to reducing the likelihood of the current epidemic, it remains oblivious to the greater impact on most vulnerable women, including internally displaced women, low-income women, or women Those who live in remote areas who are alone, many of them do not enjoy the luxury to stop working to reach their daily income.

Fourteen local organizations working on women's rights participated in #signing an open _ letter to the Presidential Council to urge them to include their gender-sensitive recommendations in their plan of action to address the mitral virus, but no humanitarian assistance has been provided Or compensation for internally displaced persons or an assessment of those at risk of losing their living due to the epidemic. In addition, there is no consideration to address the rise of gender based violence.
In fact, during the first weeks of closing, three women were reported killed by their partners across the country.

There are no formal reporting mechanisms on #domestic _ violence, a taboo topic that is not widely discussed in Libya, women at risk at home have no place to go.

Although civil society space is shrinking, NGOs continue to provide their services, often lack the resources to implement their own responses, many of them have started independent voluntary initiatives.

Government policies tend to ignore civil society despite their direct contact with communities in need, and are already able to better assess potential risks and mitigation measures!

Women are especially missing from the picture because they are not represented in government.

The effects of the epidemic are very tangible, and the warring factions and their foreign supporters must stop all hostilities not only to find a solution to the conflict but also to meet the enormous economic and social challenges that the virus presents to Libya.
Now more than ever, the country needs everyone's contribution to overcome the upcoming changes, and the government has to establish regular channels of communication to consult with civil society organizations, especially women.
