Libyan Crimes Watch is a non-governmental, non-profit human rights organization established in 2019 at the initiative of independent human rights activists, registered in the United Kingdom[1], and mainly specialized in monitoring and documenting crimes and all human rights violations in Libya, and aims to spread a culture of human rights and work to bring criminals to justice .[2]

The Libyan Crimes Watch Organization relies in its work on field investigative research carried out by a monitoring team in the organization in various Libyan regions. This research is based on investigating the facts of human rights violations, in order to obtain accurate information about the facts, their circumstances, the identity of the victims and the violating parties. It also documents testimonies, evidence, presumptions, records and related documents for examination and verification. The organization called on the Government of National Unity and the authorities in eastern Libya to end all human rights violations, including kidnappings and enforced disappearances.[3]

The Libyan Crimes Watch Organization called on Haftar's forces to stop targeting residential communities, to spare civilians the armed conflict, and to abide by international humanitarian law "the rules of war", and held them legally and morally responsible for these grave human rights violations. It called on the UN Security Council and the United Nations Support Mission in Libya to assume their responsibilities to protect civilians in Libya, and to send a fact-finding committee to investigate war crimes and bring the perpetrators to justice.[4]
