Libya Sufi shrines attacked 'by Islamist hardliners'
A Sufi Muslim shrine has been bulldozed in the Libyan capital Tripoli - the latest in a series of attacks blamed on ultra-conservative Salafi Islamists.

The attack came a day after hardliners were accused of damaging the tomb of a Sufi scholar in the city of Zlitan.
