In Libya, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:

• Almadar Aljadid: Established in 1995, Almadar Aljadid is a state-owned company based in Tripoli, offering 2G, 3G, and 4G services, with ongoing tests for 5G technology.

• Libyana: Founded in 2004, Libyana is another state-owned operator headquartered in Tripoli, providing 2G, 3G, 4G, and VoLTE services, and currently testing 5G technology.

Both operators are owned by the Libyan Post, Telecommunications and Information Technology Company (LPTIC) and have extensive network coverage across the country.

Libya does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs); therefore, all mobile services are provided directly by these major MNOs.
