This video, posted on Facebook on March 30 by group that calls itself the "Intifada of February 17, 2011," claims to show rebels discovering and holding landmines on the approach to Sirte. The description, translated from Arabic, says:

"Battalions of Gaddafi laid the mines in the path of the advance freedom revolutionaries' advance to the city of Sirte..rare courage in how the revolutionaries are dealing with these mines."
