A Tunisian military plane destroyed three cars loaded with weapons that were driving just north of the country’s southern border with Algeria and Libya, the official TAP news agency said Thursday.
The plane attacked the cars after their occupants opened fire on it as it patrolled the southern zone of Satah al-Hassan 100 kilometres (60 miles) north of the triple border overnight Wednesday, TAP reported.
The defence ministry would not immediately comment on the report when contacted by AFP.
