The Libyan government forces shelled the rebels who tried to retrieve a key oil port and retreated despite reports of the Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) that almost a third of the heavy weapons have Muammar Gadhafi been destroyed. The rebels managed to take over the port of Brega, aided by international air campaign that bombed Gadhafi heavy weapons, but the attack with rockets and tanks indicate that the government offensive capability is intact.
"The situation is very bad. We can not match his arms, "said Kamal Mughrabi, a 64 year old retired soldier who joined the rebels. "If you do not return the planes to bomb them, we must go in retreat." The attempts of the rebels firing rockets and mortars against government forces were met with aggressive shelling, which made many of the rebel forces withdrew to the city of Ajdabiya, tens of kilometers (miles) away.
Apparently there was no immediate response from the international force planes patrolling the skies Libyans who have previously helped the rebels. Brigadier General of NATO, Mark Van Uhm, said the air strike destroyed the alliance has so far 30% of weapons of Gadhafi. On Monday alone, NATO conducted 14 attacks against ground targets across the country, destroying radar, ammunition depots, armored vehicles and rocket launchers.
Since taking control of operations, NATO aircraft have carried out a total of 851 outlets, 334 of them offensive, but not all came to shoot. According Uhm, the calculation referred to before and after NATO took over from Britain, France and the United States in charge of operations on 31 March.
The rebels expressed reservations. The military leader of the Libyan uprising, Gen. Abdel Fatah Yunes, accused NATO of letting people die of Misrata. "What is NATO? Bombs here and there "when people are threatened Misrata" extermination. " The charges take place after NATO announced it would make the defense of Misrata his "number one priority." The international media should support strongly the people of Misrata and appeal to NATO, which lets people die every day
