Libya's military spokesperson Colonel Milad Hussein al-Fiqhi was killed Sunday during a NATO raid, Xinhua reported on Monday.

The raid targeted an intelligence building in the Libyan capital Tripoli, Al-Arabiya news channel quoted a source as saying.

Khaled al-Warfali from the opposition told al-Arabiya in a phone call that "Colonel Fiqhi is most probably responsible for the crimes which took place in Zawiyah town."

Earlier, NATO raided Bir al-Ghanam and al-Egila areas southwest of Tripoli, Xinhua reported.

The Libyan state news agency said the attacks led to civilian casualties. But it did not give any further details.
