The U.S. State Department says it has chartered a ferry to evacuate Americans from the Libyan capital, Tripoli, as other nations make similar efforts to help tens of thousands of foreigners flee a deadly uprising against Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.
A U.S. notice sent to Americans in Tripoli advises those wishing to leave to report to the city's As-Shahab port Wednesday morning for a ferry departing at 3 p.m. local time for the Mediterranean island of Malta. It says U.S. citizens will be required to reimburse the U.S. government for the cost of the trip.
