Two die in Libya clashes
Description
Muammar Gaddafi may be gone - but the fighting in Libya continues.
These men were injured over the weekend during clashes between rival militias in the eastern part of the country.
At least two people died in the fighting and 36 were injured near the city of Gharyan.
One fighter accused residents of a neighbouring town of remaining loyal to Gaddafi.
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) UNIDENTIFIED FIGHTER FROM GHARYAN, SAYING:
"They are supporters of the former regime still fighting and raising the green banner of shame, they lift their banners and fight."
Since Gaddafi's death, militias have clashed over land and minor disputes, and often each side accuses the other of backing the dead dictator.
Many of these groups acquired huge stockpiles of weapons during the uprising to oust Gaddafi.
Libya's interim leader has warned that clashes between the militias have the potential to spark a civil war in country still divided.
