Gunmen attack Libyan parliament

Gunmen in the Libyan city of Benghazi raid a security headquarters, sparking clashes in which five people died, military sources say.

Heavy gunfire is heard in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, with supporters of a rebel commander saying they are attacking the interim parliament.

A Libyan jet crashes in Tobruk, near the seat of parliament, causing a huge inferno and killing a child and at least two other people, officials say.

Libya's parliament votes for foreign intervention to protect civilians caught up in deadly clashes between rival militia groups.

Abdullah al-Thinni was only confirmed as prime minister last week but he is stepping down after he and his family were attacked.

Gunmen attack an Egyptian naval vessel in the Mediterranean, state media report, a day after a car bomb injured 10 in the Sinai Peninsula.

The US Embassy in Nairobi said the attack was a show of “cowardice.” “We are saddened & angered by today’s terrorist attack at Garissa Univ. Our deepest condolences to family and friends of victims. “CowardsNeverWin,” the embassy posted on its Twitter account.

Libya's acting interior minister escapes an assassination attempt by unknown gunmen in the capital, Tripoli.
