Antigovernment militias expand their control and are approaching Tripoli

The city of Benghazi was now a municipal council composed of 15 members who will take the lead in the second city of Libya to "to topple the regime (of Muammar Gaddafi)," according to Fathi Low, a member of that group. The town was like during the day began to deploy traffic wardens, reopened banks and troops loyal to the revolution began to collect the countless weapons that have been scattered after the collapse of the forces defending the dictatorship.

"We placed an expert for each subject, including a high-ranking military will coordinate the troops that remain in the city, but always under the authority of the civilians," said Low, a professor of political science at the University will be in charge of the Department of Education. Following the positivist spirit of the Egyptian revolution, the rebels have given a whole lot of regulations and are spreading slogans banners which read as that reads "Yes to opening of bakeries, yes to the opening of pharmacies, they return to normal life in Benghazi.

" "We decided to bring forward the delivery of the wages that workers should receive at the end of the month and even talking with banks to accept loans from $ 170 to those who have no credit. We want to show the murderer that he is not or chaos, but we can abide in the normal way without your presence, "said Low.

The people of Benghazi has also received with indignation the Italian government's tacit support to the thesis defended by Gaddafi. "It was like an insult. Berlusconi must be the only person in the whole world is declared a friend of a murderer like Gaddafi. Where are the people of Al Qaeda? Where is the Islamic Emirate of the speaker? Have you had any problems since I crossed the border? "Dr.

Mustafa Abdurrahman inquired the reporter had actually crossed half the country without meeting any Islamic militant. Despite growing normally seen in Bangasi, the situation in western country has been aggravated by the attacks of militants and troops against the city of Gaddafi and Msrata Zawiya, in the west.

antigovernment militias are advancing and 'liberating' cities beyond those which were controlled in eastern Libya . In fact, witnesses say their goal is to Tripoli and, little by little, they approach the capital. According to a Libyan newspaper-the first assault against the city of Zawiya, would have left at least 10 dead and dozens injured.

In Benghazi, local authorities read a statement which confirmed the attack against Msrata "which was led by three groups of followers of Gaddafi, some in uniform and others in civilian clothes, which were ultimately rejected." By contrast, the Zuara village near the border with Tunisia, rebelled and came under the control of supporters of the revolution after the military police and fled from that place.

There are four strategic locations so that Gaddafi is maintained or not in power: the capital, Sirte (the people in the desert of Gaddafi) and points of Ras Lanuf oil and Marsa Brega. While in Tripoli, the situation remains under control of forces loyal to Qadhafi. The police are on the streets, and even run an almost normal traffic.

State television is making a call to join a pro-Gaddafi demonstration in the capital.
