Rebels storm Gaddafi compound - Africa - Al Jazeera English: Rebels have entered the fortified compound of Muammar Gaddafi in Bab al-Azizya in Tripoli, amid intensified fighting with forces loyal to the Libyan leader.

The rebels "broke through the gates of Bab al-Aiziya [and] some opposition fighters managed to enter the government's stronghold in the Libyan capital," Al Jazeera's correspondent Zeina Khodr said, reporting from the compound on Tuesday.

As celebratory gunfire rang out, there were reports that the compund armoury was being looted.
