Operation Odyssey Dawn  (奧德賽黎明)

On March 31, the US passed military command of the operation to NATO and took a supporting role. So far, the three-week-long West-dominated air raids against Libya have apparently been caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. On one hand, the air strikes, without an additional ground invasion, are unlikely to overthrow the Gaddafi regime, and on the other hand, the western countries are reluctant to stop their military actions without achieving their aims.Operation Odyssey Dawn is the US code name for the international military operation in Libya sent to enforce United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973 during the initial period of March 19–31, 2011. Operations subsequently continued afterwards under NATO command as Operation Unified Protector. The initial operation implemented a no-fly zone to prevent government forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi from carrying out air attacks on rebel forces.
