Special forces halted and searched a truck in the Gwarsha area of the Benghazi; the vehicle was found to contain a quantity of shoulder-launched heat-seeking ground-to-air missiles, rumored to be SAM-7s, taken from Qaddafi’s arsenal. The day before, on May 23, security forces seized a large arms cache in two neighboring houses in Gwarsha that included both heavy weapons such as antitank missiles and light arms. Authorities did not disclose who had amassed the weapons or their intended use; one man was arrested.
