What mandate did the USNATO get from the UN Security Council? The SC imposed a ban on all flights in the countrys airspace a no-fly zone - not bombings! "The Council specified that the flight ban would not apply to flights that had as their sole purpose humanitarian aid, the evacuation of foreign nationals, enforcing the ban or other purposes deemed necessary for the benefit of the Libyan people. The representative of the United States said that the Council had responded to the Libyan peoples cry for help. The Councils purpose was clear: to protect Libyan civilians. The Security Council had authorized the use of force, including enforcement of a no-fly zone".
