In September of 2012, armed militants attacked the United States diplomatic compound in Benghazi, which resulting in the loss of four Americans, including the U.S. Ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens. The other three Americans who lost their lives were Sean Smith, an Information Management Officer, and two former Navy SEALs turned CIA contractors, Tyrone S. Woods and Glen Doherty.

The attack on the diplomatic compound lasted for several hours. Following the initial assault, a CIA annex located nearby also came under attack. The security personnel at the annex engaged in a fierce firefight.

The attack sparked controversy and intense scrutiny, primarily in the United States, regarding the U.S. government's response and the adequacy of security measures provided to the diplomatic facility. Investigations were launched to determine the circumstances surrounding the attack, including the preparedness and response of the U.S. government, intelligence failures, and the motives of the attackers.

Numerous reports and investigations were conducted, including a congressional inquiry and an independent review board led by Ambassador Thomas Pickering and Admiral Mike Mullen. These investigations found that there were deficiencies in the security measures at the diplomatic compound and that the attack was carried out by Islamist militants with ties to extremist groups.
