Abu Salim trauma hospital, filled with dead has become a haunting testament to the violence raging in Libya. The four-story hospital was in the Abu Salim neighbourhood, which has
seen some of the heaviest fighting. The facility was empty and
it could not be determined when the men had been killed. The floors
were covered with shattered glass and bloodstains, while medical
equipment was strewn about. One hospital room had 21 bodies lying on gurneys, while 20 others were in the hospital's courtyard next to the parking lot.
