Libyan soldiers flee to Tunisia

Nearly two dozen Libyan soldiers, including a colonel and other officers, have fled Libya in two small boats, taking refuge in neighboring Tunisia, this nation's official news agency said.

A person who met with some of them on Saturday says they fled rebel-held Misrata, arriving at Ketf port, near Ben Guerdane on the Tunisian border and that the group turned over its weapons to the Tunisian army. The person spoke on condition of anonymity for security reasons. (AP)
