Toner Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 The Foreign Office is advising against all travel to Libya now. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-28509017 "There are believed to be between 100 and 300 Britons in Libya at present. The warning follows reports at least 36 people have been killed in clashes in the city of Benghazi - and an attempted car-jack on a British embassy convoy.
