Attack kills dozens of migrants in Libya

An attack has killed up to 40 migrants at a detention centre on the outskirts of the Libyan capital Tripoli. Some 80 people were injured at the centre, which the UN-backed government says was hit by an air strike. Anti-government forces led by warlord Gen Khalifa Haftar have accused government forces of bombarding it. Most of the dead are believed to be Africans, attempting to reach Europe on clandestine sea crossings from Libya.
