An armed group seized Prime Minister Zeidan from his hotel and held him for several hours before he was rescued. A spokesman for the group, which had been hired to provide security in Tripoli, said Zeidan was "arrested" after reports that the Libyan government had been aware of the US operation to capture Abu Anas al Libi. The group that abducted him, the Libya Revolutionaries Operations Room, has ties to the defense and interior ministries. The LHOR has since denied involvement in the abduction. An armed group shot the Mizdah local council chief in an attempt to kidnap him. A Benghazi bomb disposal expert survived an assassination attempt. A criminal investigator in Derna was assassinated.
