On bright side, am with excellent group of journalists at #Rixos. We are feeling our way around corridors with candles. No power.

It's no fun being stuck in one of #Gadhafi's few remaining strongholds. #Rixos gunmen now refusing to let us leave.

Fierce battle under way near #Gadhafi compound. Huge explosions, heavy machine-gun fire. #Rixos getting hit by stray bullets.

All electricity down, running low on food and water. Sitting at #Rixos in the dark as bullets fly outside.

Mood in #Rixos much darker than before. Everyone really worried about what's going to happen to us.

Apologies for being off Twitter. #Rixos coms down, almost impossible to phone out.
