Gaddafi loyalists fight on
Description
The NTC is trying to root out forces loyal to Libya's deposed leader Muammar Gaddafi in his birthplace.
Snipers loyal to Muammar Gaddafi held back the government forces and the deposed leader warned the heads of the developing world who have recognised Libya's new rulers that they would face a similar fate to his own.
Thousands of civilians in the town of Sirte are caught up in the fighting.
Taking Sirte is of huge symbolic importance to Libya's new rulers, and until the town is captured they are putting on hold plans to start rebuilding the oil-producing North African state.
