Libyan state TV has broadcast what it said was footage of Colonel Gaddafi's son Khamis visiting people wounded in an air attack. Earlier rebels claimed he had been killed in a NATO air strike last week.
Libyan TV said the footage was recorded on Tuesday. Khamis al-Gaddafi is shown visiting a hospital chatting with people wounded in an air strike on farmhouses near the town of Zlitan, the comment said. It is the first visual evidence of Khamis being alive after the claims of his death.
Tripoli says 85 civilians from 12 families, including 33 children and 32 women, were killed on Monday night by NATO forces near Zlitan. NATO denied the allegations and said all the targets they bombed were military.
The rebels earlier said that Khamis, who commands elite loyalist troops, had been killed in a NATO strike. The government denied the report. Khamis was also wrongly reported dead in March.
Meanwhile, the head of Libya's rebel National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdel Jalil, has sacked the entire executive committee which functions as a cabinet. It followed the assassination of Abdel Fattah Younes, the former interior minister, who commanded the rebel forces.

It is old methods to give wrong information about what is really happened in the Libya.
The war of the Libya is going to become or make judgement from the God.
The 'rebels' (heavily armed western backed coup plotters) have lied about pretty much everything - the Khamis story was their latest lie. Why on earth are we handing cash and arms to these people (and embassies) when the Libyan people DON'T WANT THEM? Please look at the channel Rayyisse on youtube and you will see the evidence of the nato raid that caused many civilian casualties, among them those people that Khamis is visiting in your picture. Please also google 'leonorenlibia' and read the real news that is not making it into our mass media. 80% of Libyans want Col. Gaddafi - who are we to force a bunch of corrupt ex-officials on them as a new government? how did this happen?
They killed Gaddafi, and shot him like a dog. Are they representing the new Lybian spirit, (a 20 year old guy killed a colonel who served at least twice his age in the libian army)? A fair judgment like Sadam's might be more fair for the crimes he committed against his people. According to what rules did they kill a wonded prisoner of war? Let's hope it was a fistful of adolescents who did this and not a new era for Lybia!!
