The International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) announced that Libya participated in a large-scale regional security operation targeting cybercrime in the Middle East and North Africa, which resulted in the identification of thousands of victims and hundreds of suspects involved in fraud and cross-border cybercrime cases.
According to a statement cited by Al Araby TV, the operation — dubbed “Ramses” — was carried out between October 2025 and February 2026 with the participation of 13 countries, including Libya. The operation targeted networks and tools used in cyber fraud and cybercrime activities that caused major financial losses across the region.
Interpol said the operation led to the identification of around 3,867 victims, the arrest of 201 suspects, and the identification of 382 additional individuals, as well as the seizure of nearly 50 electronic servers used in illegal activities.
The operation also involved the exchange of around 8,000 intelligence reports and data entries among participating countries as part of efforts to strengthen security coordination and develop mechanisms to combat cross-border cybercrime.
The participating countries included Libya, Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates.
