Last May, after several months of investigation and research, Syrians for Truth and Justice (STJ) published its first report<\/a> documenting the recruitment of Syrians by Turkey to take part in fighting in Libya, that has over the past few years become the theatre of a remote conflict between, on the one hand, Turkey and its allied Qatar, supporting Sarraj\u2019s GNA, and on the other hand, a coalition formed by Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, France and Egypt, supporting Haftar\u2019s LNA.[1]<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

STJ continued its investigations and was able to reveal<\/a> that the other side, in particular Russia, with the complicity of the Syrian government, took part in the same conduct.[2]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The practice, by both parties, consisting in profiting off of an alarming economic and social context after ten years of conflict, to hire fighters, for some civilians who had never taken arms, is disgraceful. The ultimate objective lies in escaping any accountability for the violations committed by these mercenaries on behalf of these governments. Striping these fighters of any legal protection granted to lawful combatants by International Humanitarian Law, the practice disregards Syrian lives as worth less than that of official soldiers. By enlisting soldiers and civilians in a conflict they have no interest in, other than that of financial gain, governments taking part in this conduct undermine any prospects of recovery and worsen the already weakened social fabric of the country. Finally, by entangling the practice with that of child recruitment, and sending to Libya children as young as 15 years old, they violate the foundations of child protection.<\/p>\n

It is essential for international bodies monitoring and participating in the process of accountability in Libya, to address this conduct and hold to account those responsible for it. The International Criminal Court, who opened an investigation into the situation in Libya in March 2011, and whose Office of The Prosecutor reaffirmed, in April 2019, her attachment to investigating \u201cany new instances of crimes falling within the Court’s jurisdiction\u201d, must take this practice into consideration.[3]<\/a> A Commission of Inquiry must be established in order to bring significant resources into investigating the numerous violations committed in Libya, including the recruitment of mercenaries and child soldiers.[4]<\/a> The fates of Syria and Libya now seem linked for the worst, and it is time for international bodies to address it.<\/p>\n
