Libyan rebel forces are still holding the key town of Bir al-Ghanam as of Monday night, despite the Libyan government's claims that it had retaken it Sunday, reporters say.CNN's Michael Holmes reported no traffic jam at his location, about 43 miles from Bir al-Ghanam, which he said would be expected if rebels were fleeing the town. Holmes added that a Reuters reporter went to Bir al-Ghanam Monday and confirmed that the rebels were still in charge. Bir al-Ghanam is about 85 kilometers (53 miles) southwest of the Libyan capital, Tripoli. Its capture is significant because little else stands between Bir Al-Ghanam and the Libyan coastline where Tripoli is situated.
