The Gulf of Sidra Offensive was an offensive of the Second Libyan Civil War. It was launched by the Benghazi Defense Brigades on 11 June 2018,[1] and was fought concurrently with the Battle of Derna. On the first day, The Benghazi Defense Brigades captured Ras Lanuf and Sidra, before the Libyan National Army started a counteroffensive on 17 June.[4] On 21 June, The LNA captured Ras Lanuf and Al Sidra.[5] Hours later, The Benghazi Defense Brigades claimed to capture these cities once again,[6][7] but the LNA denied these claims, releasing pictures showing their soldiers within Sidra and Ras Lanuf.[8]
