| The U.S. Embassy in Tripoli taken over by Libyan Jihadists |

Members of a Libyan jihadists militia have taken over the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, where the United States evacuated all of its staff last month, U.S. officials said on Sunday.
A YouTube video showed the breach of the diplomatic facility by what was believed to be a militia group mostly from the northwestern city of Misrata. Dozens of men, some armed, were seen gleefully crowded onto the patio of a swimming pool, with some diving in from the balcony of a nearby building.
