The United Nations’ Panel of Experts on Libya is recommending that the UN Security Council impose sanctions on Ahmed Gadalla, a globe-trotting Libyan financier who is a permanent resident of Canada.
Mr. Gadalla, 46, and two of his foreign-based companies are on a list of individuals and entities accused of violating the UN arms embargo against Libya, according to the panel’s 2026 final report to the UN Security Council.
Imposed in 2011, the UN arms embargo prohibits the transfer of military equipment, such as weapons and armoured vehicles, to Libya, save for certain exceptions.
