In the east,
Ajdabiyah is the last remaining obstacle before the rebel
stronghold of Benghazi.
Bashir Al Tammani, the leader
of the Committee for Dialogue, which represents various
tribal groups, has called for the fighting to end, claiming
some rebels are trying to divide the country. He said he
wanted to see dialogue with the opposition.
But in Benghazi rebels remain
optimistic and defiant. One resident told news agency Reuters
that if Gaddafi’s forces invade the city, “it
will be war”.
