A Libyan passenger plane with 118 people on board has been hijacked and forced to land in Malta, the airline Afriqiyah Airways has confirmed.
The Airbus A320 was flying inside Libya for Afriqiyah Airways when it was diverted, local media report.
There were two hijackers involved, who threatened to bomb the plane, according to initial reports.
Maltese PM Joseph Muscat said security forces were standing by.
Hopefully this will end peacefully, and we dont have yet another major terrorist attack.

Associated Press are reporting that 25 passengers have left the plane and more are disembarking.

Are they aware that Ghadaffi is no longer with us?

Edit: Oh I see they want Ghadaffi's sons to be released from prison. Well it looks like they might join them there instead.
