A year ago this day in Libya, March 19th. This was the day the no-fly zone over Libya was officially implemented. Early on this day, as pictured above, the news cycles were captivated by some incredible photos of a Libyan fighter jet, aligned with the anti-Gaddhafi forces, that was shot down over Benghazi.

Check out one of the Guardian’s old live blogs from that day, as well as one from Al Jazeera.
