US says airstrike in Libya kills 2 militants

None

BENGHAZI - The US military says it has launched an airstrike in southwestern Libya, killing two militants.

 

Africa Command said Saturday's airstrike was conducted near the town of Ubari as part of efforts to "disrupt and destroy terrorist organizations." AFRICOM said no civilians were killed.

 

Videos and photos circulated online showed shrapnel-riddled cars outside a severely damaged house. The footage, purporting to show the aftermath of the strike, appeared to be authentic.
