2015-04-30
[Libya Herald] A missile has hit a school in Bengahzi’s Majouri district housing refugees from other parts of the country. Five people are reported to have been wounded in the attack last night.

They have been named as Mohamed Ahmed Omar (17 years old), Mohamed Rajeb Mansour (33), Moutaz Mohamed Marja (32), Osama Farhat Masoud (28) and Ali Al-Senussi Hun (18). They were taken to Jalaa Hospital.

In a separate incident, part of the Children’s Hospital, near Benghazi Medical Centre, has closed after it was hit yesterday by a missile. No one was injured.

Parts of the city continue to suffer what is still being referred to a random rocket attacks said to be from Ansar Al-Sharia. In Buhdeima two people were reported injured in such attacks and one in Salmani. However, many Benghazi residents question the use of the word “random”, saying that the firing by Ansar is deliberate and intended to punish areas for not supporting it.
