2 dead as Greek tanker is bombed by "unidentified warplane"

Darna is a stronghold of Islamic extremists who have sworn allegiance to the Islamic State extremists, who occupy significant parts of the territory in Iraq and Syria.

In its report, the AP noted that "widespread militia violence has plunged Libya into chaos less than four years after a NATO-backed uprising toppled and killed longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi."

The Araevo had 26 crew members - 21 Filipinos, three Greeks, two Romanians. The ship was carrying 12,600 tons of fuel, and the damage done to the tanker is still being assessed.

Due to the increasing violence and chaos in Libya, the Arab League has called an emergency meeting of its permanent members.
