Rebels lay siege to Libyan cities
Rebel forces in Libya will lay siege to pro-Gaddafi cities until a deadline for their surrender expires next week, the opposition leader said today.
The head of the rebels’ National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, told reporters that his military forces are supplying the cities of Sirte, Bani Walid, Jufra and Sabha with humanitarian aid but will keep up a siege until the towns surrender.
