Blasts Hit Tripoli, Benghazi           05/18 14:08

   TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) -- Libyan officials say explosions went off in the 
capital Tripoli and the restive eastern city of Benghazi, but no casualties 
were reported.

   A security official says one bombing targeted an abandoned church in 
Benghazi that had been previously damaged by fire. The explosion damaged only a 
car parked outside.

   The official says two other explosions targeted parked security vehicles 
elsewhere in the city. A soldier was lightly wounded from flying debris.

   The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized 
to brief the media.

   Tripoli's security spokesman, Essam el-Naas, says two suspects have been 
arrested for an explosion near the Saudi, Greek and Palestinian embassies. A 
second went off near a security building.

   He did not give further details about the suspects.

   All explosions took place Saturday.
