In a
quarterly update on human rights in Libya covering the period since an uprising
began against Qaddafi’s rule, Britain’s Foreign Office said it was appalled by
reports of serious human rights violations during the conflict.

“Whilst
there has been no official death toll, several sources report that
approximately 1,000 people have already been killed and many more have been
injured during the recent violence,” it said.
