At least 60 people where found dead in a complex neighbouring the headquarters of the Khamis brigade in Tripoli. According to two survivors, the people who died here were randomly taken of the streets in the last months and inprisoned in a hangar. On tuesday 23d of august they were handgranaded, machinegunned and then set on fire.
