Present condition of Libya-Strike hits Gaddafi compound in Tripoli

A military command centre that was using  Muammar Gaddafi has been destroyed in an air strike by coalition forces.military command centre was a three-storey building .

    The shooting is much closer to our position now, but we still can't hear any aircraft. Of course, they may be flying too high, or the fire may be targeting missiles, as they were last night. It is impossible to see from here, though we have a good view of the city, we can't see any smoke or any fires breaking out.



    But all around us, there is anti-aircraft fire going off. So there is an expectation of something happening, if it hasn't already ...

    These offers of a ceasefire are a little strange, seeing as there is already the offer of a ceasefire from the foreign minister yesterday.

    You have to ask if this is a decision being made in the full view of the Libyan public. When the military spokesman was asked if this was going to be broadcast on state TV and Libyans would be made aware that there was a ceasefire offer, he said no.Futures advanced as much as 2.3 percent after Muammar Gaddafi vowed to repel two-days of attacks by missiles and warplanes against military installations. Libya’s crude output has fallen to a quarter of the production before the crisis, and may stop, according to the chairman of the national oil company. Bahrain Petroleum Co. employees went on strike last week in response to a police crackdown on anti-government demonstrations, while Yemen declared a state of emergency.

“The likelihood of a swift normalization of Libya crude oil production looks less and less likely after events over the weekend,” Soozhana Choi, head of Asian commodities research at Deutsche Bank AG in Singapore, said in an interview with Rishaad Salamat on Bloomberg Television’s “On the Move Asia.”

Tripoli hit for second day......


Other loud explosions rocked Tripoli on Sunday night, as Britain''s ministry of defence said one of its submarines had again fired guided Tomahawk missiles on Libyan air defence systems.

"The principle firing happened around nine o''clock in the evening local time and that''s when we believe there was a strike in the region of Gaddafi''s compound," McNaught said.

"We saw a large plume of smoke coming from an explosion somewhere in that general direction. It is likely there were plenty of useful military targets there if you were a major international force looking to persuade Gaddafi to make peaceful noises."

The blasts came two days after the United Nations Security Council authorised international military action to enforce a no-fly zone over Libya, as well as "all necessary measures" to prevent attacks by Gaddafi forces on civilians.

The uprising against Gaddafi broke out on February 15, and hundreds of civilians have died in the regime''s brutal crackdown.
