Britain's intelligence agencies thwarted a deadly attack on the leadership of the anti-Gaddafi rebels in Libya, Foreign Secretary William Hague has disclosed.
The agencies were able to warn the National Transitional Council in Benghazi of the danger after discovering details of the planned attack by Muammar Gaddafi's former regime, Mr Hague said.
He said the agencies - which include the Secret Intelligence Service, MI6, and the electronic "listening" agency GCHQ - had played a key role in the conflict which brought Gaddafi's 42-year dictatorship to an end."
