Description
English: A Royal Air Force C-17 from RAF Brize Norton delivers a large consignment of previously frozen Libyan banknotes to the Central Bank of Libya in Benghazi.

The newly-minted banknotes, printed in the UK, were part of a stock of 1.86bn Libyan dinars frozen under United Nations Security Council Resolution 1970 at the start of the crisis in Libya to prevent them falling into the hands of the Gaddafi regime. The money was unfrozen by the UN on Monday, 29 August 2011.
