An armed group attacked the
embassy building of the United Arab Emirates in the Libyan capital Tripoli on
Thursday, according to an eyewitness.
"At 6:00 a.m. (0400 GMT) a
car with three people in it drove by the end of this street and, of course I live
in here, the attack was on the corner of the street. He pulled out a rocket and
launched it towards the embassy as you can see," said local resident
Khaled Alzintany.
A large hole, caused by the
rocket, could be seen in the wall of the building.
There were no reports of
injuries.
Police were at the scene, but
there was no further information available about the attack.
