BENGHAZI: A string of attacks killed five people and wounded more than 20 in eastern Libya yesterday, including in a stronghold of the internationally recognised authorities, officials said.
An interior ministry official said a suicide attack hit the centre of Tobruk, a town close to the Egyptian border and 1,600km east of Tripoli that is the base of a contested parliament elected in June. “At least one person was killed and 20 more injured, four seriously” in the suicide car bomb attack, a health ministry official said.AFP
