A security services building and the headquarters of Libya's anti-corruption agency in Tripoli have been set ablaze after being hit by apparent NATO air strikes.
The two buildings on Al-Jumhuriya Avenue are close to the residence of leader Muammar Gaddafi, in an area where two explosions were heard at around 1.30am on Tuesday (1130 GMT).
By 3am firefighters were battling to control flames that were tearing through the two facing buildings, according to an AFP correspondent brought to the area by Libyan authorities.
The head of Libya's Ministry for Inspection and Popular Control, the anti-corruption agency, was at the scene and said that some ministry employees had been injured, but provided no further details.
Three explosions had also been heard earlier in the same area.
Parts of Tripoli have been targeted almost daily by NATO-led strikes carried out since a March 19 UN resolution called for the protection of civilians from Gaddafi's regime.
Al Jazeera's Laurence Lee, reporting from Sicily, said that the NATO mission is not a failure, but it is by no means a success.
The assertion that Gaddafi is authorizing the killing of civilians in a crackdown on anti-government protesters has prompted the International Criminal Court (ICC) to seek arrest warrants on Monday for the Libyan leader, his son and the country's intelligence chief.
