After a bombing at a Benghazi military academy that killed at least 11 people and wounded many more, Justice Minister Marghani urged Libyans to “declare war on terrorists who have been killing Libyans and foreigners in the cities of Benghazi and Derna,” and said international help is needed in the fight as Libya has no military or police force to bring the terrorists to justice. An Iraqi Christian professor at the University of Sirte was shot dead. The bodies of two people with their hands chopped off were found in Benghazi. Libya and Egypt agreed to suspend visa requirements for some border area residents. Ibrahim Jedran, whose militia took over Libya’s eastern oil ports last year, accused the US of “piracy” for escorting a renegade tanker with illicit oil back to Libya.
