BENGHAZI, Libya: Two staff, including one foreign worker, were kidnapped early on Saturday in an attack by an unknown group at a facility at Libya's giant Sharara oil field, engineers from the field said.

The attack happened at a control station on the outskirts of Sharara, about 40km away from the main part of the field, one of the engineers said.
