Police responding to reports of a clash at a tourist chalet outside Benghazi found gunmen and about 200 gelatina bombs as well as bomb-making materials. Nine people are being investigated; the military said the bombs were for fishing, not terrorism, but another report alleged the bombs belonged to a terrorist cell. A small bomb detonated near a closed Tripoli hotel; officials tried to suppress the story. Turkey has offered to help rebuild Libya's military.
