UNSC 1973 authorized 12 of NATO's 28 members to use its name “to take all necessary measures to enforce compliance with the ban on flights."

A “pure no-fly zone" is what the Russians had agreed to, and [[Vladimir Putin]] noted later during the [[Crimea]]n annexation that Obama and cohorts "violated the UN Security Council resolution on Libya, when instead of imposing the so-called no-fly zone over it they started bombing it too."<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=AjAyCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA219&lpg=PA219&dq=violated+the+UN+Security+Council+resolution+on+Libya,+when+instead+of+imposing+the+so-called+no-fly+zone+over+it+they+started+bombing+it+too.&source=bl&ots=HRqOB2VBJQ&sig=5r066oZAPgWKZIsS9B04IzMGlL8&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjH_5Pv69HTAhUjj1QKHZJ0CkIQ6AEIKzAF#v=onepage&q=violated%20the%20UN%20Security%20Council%20resolution%20on%20Libya%2C%20when%20instead%20of%20imposing%20the%20so-called%20no-fly%20zone%20over%20it%20they%20started%20bombing%20it%20too.&f=false]</ref>
