All witnesses agree on the absence of security forces in the east of Libya, where demonstrators have already taken most of the territory.
In fact, the border is guarded only by the part of Egypt, which has increased military presence many soldiers with tanks. The biggest problem, according to the journalist said 'Corriere della Sera, is the chaotic situation in Cyrenaica, where there are no police controls and groups of thieves have started their activities.
In Tripoli, a journalist 'OAS' says people shouting the same thing recently screamed in Egypt 'The people want to bring down the regime. " Explains that although most of the neighborhoods are taken by the insurgents, armed groups that are shooting through the streets of the capital and many people wounded on the ground.
Also, the Italian daily La Repubblica impressions of the entrepreneur moves Libyan Khamal: "I tell you one thing, many women have been killed, were offering water to the protesters from the windows of their homes. Have lost their lives for freedom Benghasi and Libya. There were many marching, children 18 years old with 80, everyone has taken the streets to demand freedom, we want to see more of Ghaddafi, the Libyan people only want democracy and that the colonel is processed ".
For its part, an Italian entrepreneur who has spent two years in Tripoli talks to Skype: "The situation is out of control, we talk about a civil war just because it is a war between Libyans and mercenaries in black Africa and Eastern Europe . It's a horror, Tripoli is on fire. " In addition, the city complains that it is trying to contact the Italian embassy to ensure their safe transfer to the airport, with little success: "From there I have a plane to Italy tomorrow, but the staff has answered me that they have no or personnel and facilities to help, so I have to do my own risk.
