EU/US has supported a rebellion in Lybia (equals created a rebellion in Lybia) and then used direct military force to topple Lybian regime.

I'm not even sure who administered the city which was crushed by the flood in 2023 considering the free-for-all in Lybia ever since.

As usual with Western-induced rebellions, everybody ended up losing. I'm also not sure why you are confident that Gaffafi was going to "obliterate the civilians" (read - his own citizens).

Derna is in Eastern Libya, so it's under control of the Libyan National Army regime, the one run out of Benghazi. Pretty easy to look up actually.
