Tripoli/Cairo: A number
of civilians, including children, were wounded in a coalition air
strike early Monday on a weapons depot in the southwest city of Jabal al-Sabha, according to Libyan sources.
The opposition Libya al-Youm said the proximity of the air strike to
stores and residential areas caused a number of injuries to
civilians and destroyed several homes.
There were no numbers given for how many people were injured, but no
deaths were reported.
According to the Libyan state-run JANA news agency, children were
among the wounded.
NATO ambassadors decided late Sunday to take over control of all
UN-mandated military operations in Libya, including any air strikes
aimed at protecting civilians from the embattled leader's troops.
