Algeria Closes Libya Embassy over 'Real and Imminent Threat'
[AnNahar] Algeria has closed its embassy and its consulate in Tripoli...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... because of a "real and imminent threat" to its diplomats, the foreign ministry announced on Friday. The decision was taken in coordination with the Libyan authorities, after certain information was received "about the existence of a real and imminent threat targeting our diplomats and consular staff," the ministry said.
