TRIPOLI: The UN Support Mission in Libya said Friday that its Tripoli headquarters had come under rocket attack without causing any casualties or damage.
The Libyan interior ministry said it foiled “an attempted attack” with an anti-tank missile on the compound housing UNSMIL headquarters.
The rocket hit a house in Janzour in the outskirts of the capital, the ministry added, without specifying how far that was from UNSMIL headquarters.
Authorities said they seized a pickup truck “carrying two more missiles and a launch platform” but gave no indication of who might have carried out the attack.
Libya is split between the UN-recognized government in Tripoli, led by Prime Minister Abdulhamid Dbeibah, and a rival administration in the east.
