The Libyan Air Force refused orders to bomb a tanker that was illegally taking on oil at Essider. Prime Minister Zeidan said the Army refused orders from him and would answer only to the GNC and its commander in chief. A sum of $35 million was reportedly paid for the shipment and deposited in a Beida bank; the ship is said to be owned by a Saudi businessman. A former security officer was shot dead in Benghazi last night.
