Britain warns of Benghazi threat

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 24 Januari 2013 | 20.47

BRITAIN'S Foreign Office has urged its nationals to leave the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi immediately, saying it has become aware of a "specific and imminent threat to Westerners" there.

The warning came a day after US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton gave an emotional appearance before Congress about the attack on the US mission in Benghazi on September 11 that killed the US ambassador and three other people.

The Foreign Office has been advising against travel to most of the country since last September, but has now stepped up its warning.

A spokesman said on Thursday: "We are now aware of a specific and imminent threat to westerners in Benghazi, and urge any British nationals who remain there against our advice to leave immediately.

"We have updated our travel advice to reflect this. The British Embassy in Tripoli has been in contact with British nationals for whom we have contact details to alert them to the advice."
