At least nine people were killed and 49 were injured in clashes between Ansar al Sharia and government forces in Benghazi. All of Ansar al Sharia’s bases in Benghazi have reportedly now been destroyed, and the group is said to have “disappeared” from Benghazi. An Ansar al-Islam clinic is treating Ansar al Sharia casualties. An officer in Benghazi’s special forces was seriously injured by a gunman yesterday; his father is an army commander in Sirte. Ansar al Sharia has a camp outside Sirte.
