Front line stalls outside Ajdabiya

Four days into an international military operation that has crippled Muammar Gaddafi's air force and air defence and forced the retreat of his ground troops in the east, rebels still can't seem to break through to Ajdabiya.

Al Jazeera's James Bays filed this report nine kilometres outside the town, where the AJE team had earlier come under missile fire from Gaddafi's forces.
