CAIRO: The motorcade of the interior minister of Libya’s UN-backed government came under attack on Sunday in the capital, Tripoli, a government spokesman said.
Armed men opened fire at Fathi Bashagha’s motorcade on a highway in Tripoli, wounding at least one of his guards, said Amin Al-Hashmi, a spokesman for the Tripoli-based Health Ministry.
He said Bashagha survived the attack and his guards chased the assailants, killing one and detaining two others.
