LONDON- Three British military transport planes evacuated 150 civilians from sites in the Libyan desert on Sunday, Defence Secretary Liam Fox said.
They included people from Britain and other countries who had been stranded in Libya following the uprising against Muammar Gaddafi@@@s 41-year-old rule.
"Three Royal Air Force C130 Hercules aircraft have successfully evacuated around a further 150 civilians from multiple locations in the eastern Libyan desert," Fox said in a statement.
Two of the planes had landed in Malta and the third was due to arrive shortly, he said.
