Libyan security forces found 20 bodies at an air base a day after an arms depot there exploded, the official LANA news agency quoted an army official as saying Friday, dpa reported.
The blast Thursday took place after a group of people entered the base near the city of Sabha to steal weapons, the source said.
"Haji, this bomb is too heavy for me to carry!"
"Okay, Mahmoud, just drop it and help me with these missiles." |
The depot had been previously hit by thieves several times, the local Libya Herald news website reported. The latest report of robbery was earlier this month when dozens of gunmen stormed the air base and looted all the ammunition inside the storage, the report said. |
