Libya rebels 'still holding town': The Libyan town of Bir al-Ghanam, close to Tripoli, appears to be still under rebel http://bit.ly/oEz2fE
Rebels were seen celebrating after capturing the town, 80km (50 miles) south of Tripoli, in an offensive aimed at ending months of deadlock. The Libyan town of Bir al-Ghanam, close to Tripoli, appears to be still under rebel control after an assault on Saturday, despite government denials. Hours earlier, the government said the town had been recaptured and life was "back to normal".The offensive launched on Saturday saw hundreds of rebels push out of the Nafousa Mountains in the west, down towards the towns of the coastal plain.An AFP correspondent said they were still in control on Monday morning. Military success in the west of the country is crucial to the rebels' chances of defeating Col Muammar Gaddafi's government, which has prevented the rebels advancing from their stronghold around Benghazi in the east.Hundreds of people have been killed, and a UN-backed international no-fly zone has been imposed, since the uprising against Col Gaddafi's authoritarian rule began in February.
