Rumours circulating in Benghazi that Ansar Al-Sharia and its allies have taken control . . .[restrict]of Benina Airport and a nearby Air Defence Forces’ camp have been denied.

Head of Saiqa Special Forces Investigations Unit Fadel Al-Hassi told the Libya Herald that members of Operation Dignity remained in defensive positions in both locations and had retained them despite heavy fighting nearby.
