The spokesman for the Demining Unit of Sirte Protection Force, Salem al-Amil, said that the force has managed to detect five ready-to-detonate charges in a trash bin near the medical supply depots at Ibn Sina Hospital in Sirte.

Al-Amil told Libya Observer that the bombs were modified to blow remotely, adding that the charges were covered with empty medicine bags for camouflage.

The demining team dismantled the five charges in the presence of officials from Ibn Sina Hospital, after opening an investigation into the incident, according to Amil.
