Tripoli , Libya ( CNN ) -- Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi vowed Tuesday that `` we will not surrender , '' even as NATO airstrikes bombarded his compound in Tripoli . `` I am now speaking as planes and bombs fall around me , '' Gadhafi said in a live audio broadcast on state television . `` But my soul is in God 's hand . We will not think about death or life . We will think about the call of duty . '' At least three explosions rocked Tripoli late Tuesday night ; it was not immediately clear what they hit . Earlier in the day , NATO targeted a military base and Gadhafi 's compound , state television reported . A spokesman for the Libyan government said that at least 31 people were killed , including a number of civilians , and dozens more were wounded after 60 missiles struck the capital city . The compound was under `` intensive continuous bombardment , '' according to state TV , which reported buildings and infrastructure were destroyed . `` We will not surrender , we will not give up , '' Gadhafi said . `` We have one option -- our country . We will remain in it 'til the end . Dead , alive , victorious , it does n't matter . '' The blasts Tuesday , and others Monday that Libyan officials said hit state television buildings , elicited heated responses from the government spokesman . `` We believe NATO understands that its military campaign is failing miserably , '' said spokesman Musa Ibrahim . `` No one has the right to shape Libya 's future except for Libyans . '' Ibrahim said Tuesday 's morning blasts hit the popular guard compound and revolution compound , which are military barracks near Gadhafi 's Bab al-Aziziya compound . The spokesman said the attack on the television network killed two people and wounded 16 . NATO disputed the account . `` We did not target or hit the Libyan broadcast facilities . What we did target was the military intelligence headquarters in downtown Tripoli , '' the alliance said . `` The story coming from Libyan officials that we targeted and hit the state broadcaster 's building is bogus . '' The back and forth between Libyan officials and NATO continues a public relations war between the two sides . Libyan officials have continually charged that NATO airstrikes have damaged civilian facilities and killed hundreds of civilians . NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said recently that his forces have made `` significant progress '' in its U.N. Security Council mandate to protect Libyan civilians . This week , the Libyan government said it had evidence that alliance airstrikes were harming civilians . Officials took journalists to Tajura , a city east of Tripoli , to show them a small crater that held what appeared to be the remains of a rocket . The reporters were also taken to nearby homes that the government said had been damaged by airstrikes . NATO said it had been active in the area hitting military sites but could not say whether the attacks had caused the damage in the residential area . Reporters were also taken to a nearby hospital to see Nasib , a comatose baby who was a victim of the airstrikes , the government said . A woman , who the government said was Nasib 's mother , cried over the child 's listless body . Journalists were not allowed to talk to the woman or to the doctors . But one doctor quietly slipped a note to one of the journalists that said the girl was injured in a car accident , not a bomb attack . British Foreign Secretary William Hague , speaking Tuesday to British lawmakers , said the European Union has added six additional ports controlled by pro-Gadhafi forces to its sanctions list in an effort to starve Gadhafi 's troops of military supplies . He said the United Kingdom intends to push for additional sanctions against Gadhafi 's regime . `` Any political settlement in Libya requires an end to violence and Gadhafi 's departure , '' Hague said . CNN 's Raja Razek , Dan Rivers and Jonathan Wald contributed to this report .
