A truck packed with African migrants has crashed south of Tripoli in Libya, leaving at least 19 dead.
The truck flipped over about 80km south of Bani Walid on Wednesday. At least 78 people were injured.
"We did not receive the driver (at the hospital) and we don't know what has happened to him," Bani Walid hospital manager Mohamed al-Mabrouk said.
"Most likely he's survived. Otherwise he would be brought here."
Among the victims were Somali and Eritrean nationals, said a military source, who put the death toll at 25.
