A car bomb
exploded near the offices of the military police in Tripoli early today, a senior security source said, the first such attack in the
Libyan capital since the start of a revolt that toppled the regime of
Muammar Gaddafi last year.
The source said the blast
slightly wounded a Tunisian national, but it could not say who might
have been behind it.
A Reuters
witness said police had cordoned off the area around the blast's
location.
Several violent incidents
have rocked Libya in recent days but these have been mostly confined to
the eastern city of Benghazi.
Also
in Benghazi, seven Iranian relief workers were abducted on Tuesday by
an armed group just as they started an official mission as guests of the
Libyan Red Crescent Association, which is still seeking to get them
released.
