Saif al-Islam Gadhafi, one of Gadhafi's sons and a spokesman for the regime, vowed Thursday to retake other areas in eastern Libya that were controlled by the opposition and warned the international community that Libyans won't welcome NATO and Americans. NATO is contemplating the establishment of a no-fly zone, but says it needs a clear U.N. mandate to do it.
Katibu Mkuu wa NATO, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, ametangaza uamuzi wa jumuiya yake kuchukua rasmi jukumu la kuongoza operesheni ya kijeshi dhidi ya utawala wa Libya, ikiwa ni utekelezaji wa Azimio Namba 1973 la Baraza la Usalama la Umoja wa Mataifa, lililoiwekea nchi hiyo marufuku ya kuruka ndege kwenye anga lake.
