China evacuates nearly 29,000 nationals from Libya
China said Monday it had evacuated nearly 29,000 of its nationals from strife-torn Libya, where a popular uprising has left at least hundreds dead and triggered a mass exodus of foreigners.
China National Petroleum Corp., the nation's top oil and gas producer by capacity, said Thursday it had evacuated 47 of its 391 Chinese staff in Libya amid the ongoing unrest in the north African country.
