Westerners urged to quit Libyan city
It is claimed schools are among the possible targets of specific and imminent threats to westerners in the Libyan city of Benghazi, according to the Associated Press.
The Department of Foreign Affairs has advised Irish people against all travel to Benghazi and has urged any Irish citizens who are there to leave immediately after it became aware of the “specific and imminent threat”, just days after a deadly hostage crisis in the neighbouring country of Algeria.
