France has evacuated nearly 50 French and British citizens from Libya by ship, AFP reported, citing French officials. A French diplomatic source said Wednesday that 40 French nationals, including the ambassador, were evacuated along with seven British nationals. The evacuation came as Islamist groups seized the headquarters of the Libyan army’s special forces in the second-biggest city, Benghazi, after days of fighting. Witnesses also saw a huge blaze raged at a fuel depot near Tripoli’s airport.

We are in a new phase of a very old war.''
