The U.S. State Department to Evacuate Americans Out of Libya

The U.S. State department issued an evacuation notice late Tuesday, instructing U.S. citizens looking to leave Libya to arrive at As-shahab port in Tripoli beginning at 9 a.m. local time on Wednesday. The notice said Americans will board the ferry to the nearby island of Malta on a first-come, first-served basis with priority given to those with severe medical conditions. Approximately 5,000 U.S. citizens live in Libya. – HuffPo
