The expansion of telecommunication services in Libya has made mobile phones widely accessible across the population. To maintain coverage, cell towers emit electromagnetic fields (EMFs), raising public concerns about potential health risks. This study investigated EMF exposure levels at 11 cell tower sites in Tripoli, Libya. Measurements were compared with the exposure guidelines set by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The results demonstrate that EMF levels at the surveyed sites were generally within the recommended safety limits, suggesting no significant health risk from the measured emissions.
