Twin blasts near security buildings in the Libyan capital have killed two people and wounded several more, a security official said.

Libyan officials said these would be the first deadly bombings in the country since the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi last year.

One blast took place near the women's military academy. The other was located close to the interior ministry, unnamed security officials said. Armed police have surrounded both areas.

Several others were wounded in the blasts, which took place at dawn.

Violence has been an ongoing problem despite a peaceful handover of power after last month's elections, the first in decades after 42 years of one-man rule under Gaddafi.

In Iraq Saddam was murdered in the name of Justice and Democracy, and today Iraq is in a complete mess. In Libya, Gaddafi was also murdered in the name of Justice and Democracy and nothing has been achieved, thanks to USA, Nato, EU and their Allies. The only interest left in this world is MONEY, MONEY AND MORE MONEY.
