Gun Attack In Libya

A bomb exploded outside the Moroccan embassy in Libya's capital, a security official said today, just hours after a gun attack on the building housing South Korea's mission to the country.

Gunmen killed two people and wounded a third in an attack at the South Korean embassy in the Libyan capital Tripoli today which was claimed by the Islamic State group.

Colonel Mohamed al-Suissi, chief of police in Tripoli, was gunned down by unidentified attackers in the Libyan capital's eastern suburbs on Tuesday, a security source told AFP.

An Italian consul came under fire in his car in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi on Saturday but was unhurt, Italy said, four months after the U.S. ambassador was killed in an attack on the U.S. mission in the city.
