In 2010 an Italian court ordered Saadi Qadhafi to pay a hotel bill of 392,000 euros he owed since 2007. Far cry from a tent. #Libya

To clarify: it was verbal fighting, pushing and shoving among Bani Walid rebels. Some firing in air to restore order. No casualties.

Over last 4 months thousands of gas masks, chemical weapon suites moved from near Ajailat to Sirt and Al-Jifra. Strange. #Libya
