Two car bombs went off in the Libyan capital Tripoli on Thursday morning, damaging nearby vehicles but causing no casualties, said a security official.
The bombings exploded behind the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and near the entrance to a naval base that was the headquarters of Libya’s unity government when it set up operations in the city in late March, he said.
“The explosions did not cause any casualties,” but caused limited damage to nearby cars, said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
No group claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Car bombs have hit Tripoli several times since the revolution that toppled dictator Moamer Gaddafi in 2011, but the capital had not seen such an attack since September 8, 2015.
