BERLIN (AP) - Germany's foreign minister says the country's air force has evacuated 132 people from Libyan desert during a secret military mission.
Guido Westerwelle said Sunday that two German military planes landed Saturday at a runway in the Libyan desert that belongs to a private German company Wintershall. He said 22 Germans were among those evacuated and the planes landed safely on the Greek island of Crete later Saturday night.
It was not exactly clear where the runway was located or who controlled the area around it.
Westerwelle said around 100 German citizens are still in Libya and the government is trying to get them out as quickly as possible.
