| Suicide Attack Kills Three Libyan Soldiers |
| 2015-01-14 |
| [AnNahar]. Three Libyan soldiers were killed and four others maimed Tuesday in a suicide car kaboom on a road checkpoint west of the embattled city of Benghazi, a military official said. The official said an attacker drove a boom-mobile into the checkpoint, located about 100 kilometers (60 miles) west of Benghazi on the road to Ajdabiya. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Tuesday's attack but government forces have been battling Islamist militia for control of Benghazi for months. The same checkpoint was targeted by a similar attack in October but the attacker's car went kaboom!before reaching the checkpoint and there were no other casualties. Libya's internationally recognized government, which has lost control of much of the country, has pleaded for international help in combating the militias. |
