The office building of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in Bab al-Aziziyah compound was severely damaged in a NATO air strike on Monday, said a Libyan official.
The official said that the strike was an attempt on Gaddafi's life and that 45 people were wounded in the attack, 15 of them were seriously injured, and some were still missing, Reuters reported.
Reports said at least two powerful missiles struck the Libyan leader's Bab al-Azizia compound early on Monday, BBC reported.
Reports said three TV stations including Libyan Television, Jamahiriya and Shababiya were off air for about half-an-hour following the blasts shortly after midnight.
Gaddafi's compound was struck on March 13.
Although the western countries constantly asserted that they are not going after Gaddafi, this has been the second strike against the Libyan leader's compound. The previous one was on March 13.
The United States, Britain and France all insisted that they will not stop the air strike against Libya until Gaddafi leaves power.
