| 2016-01-17 |
| Benghazi was once again quiet this afternoon and evening following intermittent explosions this morning in Ard Zwawa district. A number of buildings as well as vehicles were said to have been hit, but there are no reports of any casualties. There was also missile fire in Leithi, although again no one is said to have been hurt. Yesterday, the Libyan National Army shot down a camera-mounted miniature drone aircraft which it claimed was being used by Ansar Al-Sharia to survey its positions near Garyounis. At the same time the air force targeted Ansar positions in Gwarsha and at Mreisa port. Also yesterday, a number of missiles also landed in Sidi Yunis district, once again with no reports of casualties. However, in Buhdeima on Friday, a young girl was reported killed in a random rocket attack. |
