"Great Britain is preparing to add bunker-buster bombs to their arsenal are using warplanes on Libya, a weapon would send a strong message to Muammar Qaddafi to decide to relinquish power, officials said Sunday. Britain and other NATO powers are stepping up their military intervention in Libya, to end the stalemate allowed to remain a leader Gadhafi despite weeks of air strikes since a rebel uprising.
"Do not try to physically attack people Gadhafi's inner circle, you trust, but certainly send messages increasingly aggressive," he said in a statement Defence Secretary, Liam Fox "Gadhafi may not want to hear, but around him would do well to do, "he said. His ministry said the Enhanced Paveway III bombs, each weighing almost a ton and capable of penetrating the roof or wall of a building, have come to the Italian air base where British warplanes launched their missions to Libya .
Warplanes from NATO have been increasing the pace of air strikes against Tripoli, Gadhafi and the complex in the center of the city, Bab al-Aziziyah, and was attacked repeatedly. The military alliance says it is acting under a United Nations mandate to protect civilians from attacks by security forces trying to quell a rebellion against the government four decades of Gadhafi.
But the more aggressive tactics could cause divisions within the fragile alliance that supports the intervention, force NATO to put its troops on Libyan soil, which is anxious to avoid. The television station based in Qatar Al Jazeera aired footage of a video of what it said were foreign forces, possibly British, on the ground near the town of Misrata, controlled by rebels.
There were many armed men, some wearing sunglasses and keffiyahs, or traditional Arab scarves, who were hiding when they realized they were being filmed, according to the images. Deepening its commitment, Britain and France have said that attack helicopters deployed on Libya to better distinguish the forces of Gadhafi.
Helicopters are more vulnerable to attack from land the high-flying aircraft.
