Evacuation ship aids Libyan refugees

  • 12 years ago
Rival forces in Libya's civil war are continuing to battle for control of the port city of Misurata.

Despite the violence and the chaos, a rescue ship with hundreds of people escaping Misurata has managed to make its way to the rebel base in Benghazi.

Al Jazeera's Andrew Simmons reports from on board the ferry, which has been turned into a makeshift hospital. (28 Apr 2011)
