#1 March 31, 2020: The European Union has launched a new naval mission off Libyan coast, Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) military operation in the Mediterranean, called IRINI (peace in Greek) in order to step up efforts to enforce the UN arms embargo on Libya. IRINI will have as its core task the implementation of the UN arms embargo through the use of aerial, satellite and maritime assets. The naval mission will be able to carry out inspections of vessels on the high seas off the coast of Libya suspected to be carrying arms or related material to and from Libya.

IRINI will also monitor and gather information on illicit exports from Libya of petroleum, crude oil and refined petroleum products.
