Topography of Libya
Libya covers an area of 1,759,540 square kilometers (679,362 square miles), making it the 17th largest in the world by area. It is somewhat smaller than Indonesia in the land area, and roughly equal to that of Alaska. It is bordered to the north by the Mediterranean Sea, to the west by Tunisia and Algeria, to the southwest by Niger, to the south by Chad and Sudan and from the east by Egypt. Libya lies between latitudes 19 ° C and 34 ° N, linear length 9 ° and 26 ° E.
The Libyan coast is taller than any African country overlooking the Mediterranean. [77] [78] With a length of 1,770 kilometers (1,100 miles). Where there is a part of the Mediterranean Sea north of Libya called the Libyan Sea. The climate is predominant in most of the country's dry areas and between desert and semi-desert. With the exception of northern regions with a temperate Mediterranean climate. [79]
Natural hazards come in the form of hot seasonal streams, dry, and sandstorms known in Libya as (tribal). It lasts from one to four days during spring and fall. The oases are also spread throughout Libya, most notably in Ghadames and Kufrah.
The Libyan desert has been modified
The Sahara covers large parts of the Libyan territory, with the exception of the north-east and north-west of the country
The Libyan desert covers part of Libya, including vast areas that are very arid. [43] In some places, years may pass without precipitation, and even rainfall in the southern highlands is rare and may sometimes reach once every 5-10 years. In Oweinat, in the southeast of Libya, for example, in 2006 the last rainfall occurred in September 1998. [80] There are depressions in eastern Libya in the Libyan desert, with a group of oases such as Jagbub and Jallow.
On September 13, 1922, the town of Azizia, southwest of Tripoli, recorded an air temperature of 57.8 degrees Celsius (136.0 degrees Fahrenheit) and was considered a world record. [81] However, in September 2012, that world record of 57.8 ° C was canceled by the World Meteorological Organization. [82]
There are a few small scattered uninhabited oases, usually associated with major depressions, where water can be found by digging for a few feet in depth. In the west there is a wide-spread group of oases in shallow, interconnected valleys, such as the oases in Kufra and Tazerbo. [80] Apart from the cliffs, the vast flat plain objected to a series of highlands and mountain ranges in the middle of the Libyan desert, near the Libyan-Egyptian-Sudanese border triangle.
A little further to the south are the huge mountain ranges such as the Arcno mountains, the Awainat and the Mount of Kiso. These ancient granite mountains, formed long before the sand and surrounding desert. Arno and West Owinat are a mountain chain link very similar to those in the mountains of Al Aar. Eastern Oweinat (the highest point in the Libyan desert) is a sandstone plateau adjacent to the granitic part of the west. [80] To the north of Awainat are scattered with the remains of eroded volcanic mountains. The discovery of oil in the 1950s coincided with the discovery of a vast aquifer under much of the country. The water in this underground reservoir dates back to pre-glacial times and the Great Sahara itself. [83] This area also contains the two arcino pillars, which were formed by a very powerful collision of space. [84]

LOS LEONES VERDES DE AL KUFRA - GUERRA DE LIBIA
Kufra in Al Kufrah District
Kufra
Kufra (also spelled Cufra in Italian, Koufra in French or Khofra) is a basin (Arab: Uádi el Kufra) and oasis group in Al Kufrah District,
southeastern Cyrenaica in Libya. Kufra is historically important above all because at the end of nineteenth century it became the center
and holy place of the Senussi order. Moreover, it played a minor role in the Western Desert Campaign of World War II.
It is in a particularly isolated location not only because it is in the middle of the Sahara Desert but also because it is surrounded
on three sides by depressions - which makes it dominate the passage in east-west land traffic across the desert; for the colonial Italians,
it was also important as a station on the north-south air traffic to Italian East Africa. These factors, along with Kufra's dominance
of the southeastern Cyrenaica region of Libya, explains the Oasis' strategic importance and why it was a point of conflict during World War II.
Libya's Great Man Made River by Muammar Gadaffi | A Short Film
World's Largest Irrigation Project Ever.
$70 Trillion worth of Fresh Water basins in libya - Libya's Blue gold
* In Libya there are four major underground basins, these being the Kufra basin, the Sirte basin, the Morzuk basin and the Hamada basin, the first three of which contain combined reserves of 35,000 cubic kilometres of water.
These vast reserves offer almost unlimited amounts of water for the Libyan people.
* In the 1960s during oil exploration deep in the southern Libyan desert, vast reservoirs of high quality water were discovered in the form of aquifers.
* Thus Gadaffi, started the construction for the Phase I of the $25 Billion Great Man made River Project in 1984.
The Great Man-Made River (GMR) is a network of pipes that supplies water from the Sahara Desert in Libya, from the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System fossil aquifer. It is the world's largest irrigation project.
As of now, almost all three phases has been finished by the Libyan administration .
* It carries more than five million cubic metres of water per day across the desert to coastal areas, vastly increasing the amount of arable land. The cost of one cubic meter of water equals 35 cents.
The cubic meter of desalinized water is $3.75.
* Scientists estimate the amount of water to be equivalent to the flow of 200 years of water in the Nile River.
Here is the $70 trillion Blue Gold in Libya, that caught the most attention and Love of Zionist Bankers.

STORYLINE:
The men at the checkpoint on the outskirts of Kufra - a desert town in southern Libya - are heavily armed.
They're members of the African Tabu tribe - and in recent days they've clashed with the powerful Arab tribe of al-Zwia in the remote border area where Libya, Chad and Sudan meet.
The region is a hub for the smuggling of African migrants, goods and drugs.
According to witnesses, tribal warfare there earlier this week left scores of civilians dead.
One ambulance worker told the Associated Press on Tuesday that 50 people were killed by rockets, mortars and gunfire rocking residential areas of Kufra.
Another witness said that shops were closed, no one could walk in the street, and that if one tribe took over a square, the other would open fire and drive it out.
The al-Zwia and the Tabu are old rivals.
The Tabu had long complained of discrimination under former Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi.
Since February 11, the fight has descended into an all-out confrontation with other smaller Arab tribes joining al-Zwia against the Tabu, residents of the area say.
Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, the leader of Libya's ruling National Transitional Council, said on Tuesday that Gadhafi's regime loyalists are seeding sedition in Kufra.
However, he declined to elaborate on which of the tribes are connected to the former regime.
NTC leaders often blame problems in post-revolutionary Libya on remnants of Gadhafi's regime, usually without proof.
Meanwhile, Salem Samadi, who heads a revolutionary militia and has tried to mediate a truce between the two sides, blamed the outbreak of violence on a fight over smuggling.
The damage to Kufra was apparent on Friday.
Several buildings - including a schoolroom - appeared to have been hit by incoming fire.
Some residents even showed off a rocket which had purportedly failed to explode.
Others seemed disconsolate.
There is no good, there is no good, said Khadija Gomaa Alsanusi, a member of the Tabu tribe.
If there was good help, they (the Libyan government) would had offered it to us from the beginning. There is no more good.
At a local hospital, doctors tended to injured adults and children, purportedly also members of the Tabu tribe.
Meanwhile, residents were queuing on Friday to fill up their cars with petrol.

SUMMARY
=======
The Chadian–Libyan conflict was a series of sporadic clashes in Chad between 1978 and 1987 between Libyan and Chadian forces. Libya had been involved in Chad's internal affairs prior to 1978 and before Muammar Gaddafi's rise to power in Libya in 1969, beginning with the extension of the Chadian Civil War to northern Chad in 1968. The conflict was marked by a series of four separate Libyan interventions in Chad, taking place in 1978, 1979, 1980–1981 and 1983–1987. In all of these occasions Gaddafi had the support of a number of factions participating in the civil war, while Libya's opponents found the support of the French government, which intervened militarily to save the Chadian government in 1978, 1983 and 1986.
The pattern of the war delineated itself in 1978, with the Libyans providing armour, artillery and air support and their Chadian allies the infantry, which assumed the bulk of the scouting and fighting. This pattern was radically changed in 1986, towards the end of the war, when most Chadian forces united in opposing the Libyan occupation of northern Chad with a degree of unity that had never been seen before in Chad. This deprived the Libyan forces of their habitual infantry, exactly when they found themselves confronting a mobile army, well provided now with anti-tank and anti-air missiles, thus cancelling the Libyan superiority in firepower. What followed was the Toyota War, in which the Libyan forces were routed and expelled from Chad, putting an end to the conflict.
Gaddafi initially intended to annex the Aouzou Strip, the northernmost part of Chad, which he claimed as part of Libya on the grounds of an unratified treaty of the colonial period. In 1972 his goals became, in the evaluation of historian Mario Azevedo, the creation of a client state in Libya's underbelly, an Islamic republic modelled after his jamahiriya, that would maintain close ties with Libya, and secure his control over the Aouzou Strip; expulsion of the French from the region; and use of Chad as a base to expand his influence in Central Africa.
