Libyan Rebels enter Gaddafi’s residence inside the military compound, SCUD missiles launched

Some unconfirmed reports out of Libya: Rebels have entered the Libyan government military compound in Tripoli, and NATO claims the Libyan army launched SCUD missiles.

Unfortunately announcements by rebels, in the past, have a poor track record of truth.  But there are many reports that they’ve broken into the large military compound in Tripoli, and one report said they made it inside Gaddafi’s office.

Another report says Muammar Muhammad al-Gaddafi is not in the compound.

Other reports say the Libyan army fired SCUD missiles at Misrata. Those reports come from NATO.  They “confirm” that at least three SCUD missiles were launched.

Jane’s Defence estimates that Libya has 240 of the ballistic missiles, with a range of about 300km (186 miles).
