Benghazi, .- Between 8,000 and 10,000 people have died in Libya since the beginning of the revolt against Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi, according to estimates released today by the rebels in Benghazi, capital of the revolutionaries. The rebel spokesman, Mustafa Geriani, he told reporters he did not rule out the figure may be higher.

"I think Ajdabiya fall into our hands today and tomorrow," he predicted Geriani told reporters in Benghazi, capital of the revolutionaries.

Still, Geriani expressed concern about what they will be there when clashes with the forces of Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi, finish it "could be thousands of dead." Gaddafi takes up the other side bombardeosPor today gadafistas troops resumed their attacks on some parts of the city of Ajdabiya, the main hub of the country, reported the Qatari channel Al Jazeera.

The brigades of Col. Muammar al-Gaddafi rockets used this morning, according to this chain, thereby demonstrating the Libyan regime's willingness to strengthen its position in this strategic enclave may be allowed to smother the rebels. The tanks of Gadhafi troops remain loyal to the fence from a few hits, despite the air supremacy of the international coalition that has imposed the exclusion zone.

While the regime in Tripoli announces movements never concretized dialogue with the rebels, who reject his troops keep the pressure on Ajdabiya, Zinta (west) and Misrata, the only rebel stronghold west of the country, where clashes have occurred more deadliest in the past three days with dozens of deaths.

State media in the Libyan regime to ensure there is no fighting in Misrata and report only the victims in the capital of the bombing of the international coalition to ensure more than one hundred and some are civilians. Media invited to Tripoli have not been able to verify these claims and could only attend Friday's funeral at the cemetery in Tripoli with forty coffins.

The night in the Libyan capital was apparently quiet in terms of international bombing.
