02:25 State TV Gaddafi is speaking on state TV now. While it seemed he admitted that his son Khamees was killed, it appears he might have been speaking about his grandfather. He also made a claim that Italy is trying to recolonize Libya. He once more blamed the attacks on foreigners. He says Libya is ready for a ceasefire, but that the “Crusader NATO” has not stopped.
