The Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) said his attack on eight vessels was due to Libyan military's new tactics of the forces of Muammar Gadhafi, who have begun to use its naval units in an active and "very calculated" against Misrata city. Mike Bracken, a spokesman for the alliance, noted that fast units Libyan planted mines in the harbor entrance of the rebel city of Misrata few weeks ago, and subsequently sent a boat with a ton of explosives to detonate them remotely.
The attack, which hit a building maintenance of the Navy and was the largest since NATO was added to the conflict, occurred in the ports of Tripoli, Al Khums and Sirte. Mohamed Rashid, general manager of the port of Tripoli, said the Coast Guard boats were used to patrol Libyan waters in search of boats of immigrants who try to go to Europe and search and rescue.
Yesterday the president of Senegal, Abdoulaye Wade, recognized the Libyan rebel movement as a legitimate political opposition, which was seen surprised many observers, because the president was close associate of the Libyan leader. Since the conflict began in Libya in mid-February, four ministers have abandoned Gadhafi, who also lost the backing of Italy, the European country with the most ties had.
On Wednesday and Thursday, the African Union held an extraordinary summit devoted to the conflict in the African country.
