After over two months of fighting in southern Tripoli areas, people are suffering from a lack of services in all fields. 

Service companies are also having a rough time to reach the war zones due to heavy fighting and damaged infrastructure.

Yet, some companies managed to enter war zones and provide services most needed by the people stuck in crossfire, thus facing high risks in order to assist those in dire need.

Among such companies is Giga Firm for Telecommunications and Technology. Giga managed to provide internet to Abu Salim, Ain Zara, and Qasir Benghashir after fiber cables were damaged by clashes.

The company provided the internet service by a wireless connection and overcame the problem of the fiber cables so the people trapped in crossfire can use the internet.

Giga is a pioneer company in tech and telecommunication as well as internet service fields in Libya. It has received a franchise from Ubiquiti Networks – the largest wireless internet equipment distributor.
