Fighters bulldoze Gaddafi compound
Libyan revolutionary forces bulldozed the green walls surrounding Muammar Gaddafi’s main Tripoli compound, saying it was time “to tear down this symbol of tyranny”.
The sprawling, fortress-like compound known as Bab al-Aziziya has long been hated by Libyans who feared to even walk nearby during Gaddafi’s more than four decades in power and its capture was seen as a turning point in the civil war as revolutionaries overran the capital in late August.
