tell me what your group of the future a good girl how would international. every green her till. later moved to assume command of the airborne intervention in libya but the rules of engagement remain unclear. to police the alliance is only concerned with destroying it gadhafi loyalists rebels and destruction from four to seven the capital city join me in a few moments formal. libyan officials claim the coalition bombs have already killed nearly a hundred civilians some members of the alliance for criticism. for not just. fresh aftershocks have struck japan as the country struggles to very. radioactive its crippled nuclear power plant. and also the disaster in
5:01 am
japan or could we choose global production by thirty percent that's according to the. consulting also making another country's consumption from parts produced in japan joined business about twenty minutes time. from moscow where it's just after one pm there are conflicting reports about just how far west the rebels have advanced towards the libyan capital tripoli the opposition claims it now has control of his hometown. reporters on the ground say the city is still in government hands meanwhile nato is preparing to take full command of the international operation to enforce a no fly zone over libya. the latest word we're
5:02 am
hearing from the rebels is that they've taken over that time i've said this comes as a huge surprise to people here in tripoli because said is gadhafi is home town it is where the members of his tribe dominate it is where he has a bastion of support so far the rebels have advance from their hometown of benghazi to from there they moved on to the town of ras lanuf that is a port city from there to bin jawad and now to said now we did earlier hear reports that the entrances to search had been mined but the latest reports from the rebels is that they made little to no resistance that gadhafi fled there are reports though coming through that they believe gadhafi fighters have actually stopped some of their arms and ammunitions in civilian buildings if indeed this is true and it will make any kind of a strikes extremely risky in terms of there being civilian casualties now we are hearing from the government spokesperson mr if we can move that overnight they were a strike for the first time in session as you say there were loud explosions coming
5:03 am
from there he says that three young men were killed when a fishing area not far from the city came under fire he also says that there were an additional twenty nine people who were injured in a piece convoy that we saw say it will hear from tripoli with the ultimate goal of reaching benghazi and he says that they were hit by rebels in the town of bint jawad the government still claiming that around one hundred civilians have been killed in these in strikes meanwhile in the eastern part of the country in the town of misrata the fighting continues this town is a belts off way it's actually on the road between sirte and tripoli so it will be interesting to watch developments there overnight here in the capital city of tripoli there were nine and loud explosions it was also a lot of anti aircraft gunfire going off there are concerns that as you now have a twenty eight nato member alliance calling the shots it will be a lot more difficult to implement a robust action on the ground as opposed to when you had the united states and just in charge what we have heard from nato is that they will be taking over full
5:04 am
control of my. two operations from choose day there is a summit to be held in london between now and then there are in some kind of transitional phase there are still though a number of sticking points one of these is in terms of the rules of engagement and here we've heard a lot of concerns from the various countries side who are involved we're also hearing that there's no timeline for the action so what this means is that you could see nato in command of an operation that could essentially carry on for weeks if not months turkey has come to the party to a key saying that it will act as a mediator had once been for some kind of peace talks possibly between the rebels and gadhafi himself they say that they want a ceasefire to be implemented as soon as possible one of the other concerns particularly here on the ground is there for some time now nato has been enforcing a naval blockade on the country we've heard from the government there was once five to seven ships used to reach abuse shores each day now they are simply not in and they said that some of the ships actually had reinforcements in terms of fuel in terms of in terms of food so that is increasingly becoming
5:05 am
a growing concern in the city of tripoli particularly here as supplies run no. reporting there now with the u.s. being the military and economic back nato experts say it will be hard for washington to downplay its activity or just after that i fancy so as the alliances expanded role in the operation does not mean that the u.s. is no longer in charge. they say it's a nato operation turkey is expressing a lot of reservations as to whether it's gone too far i think we can bet that there are already s.a.'s and other forces on the ground and as for a nato european compared to u.s. led in terms of this mission i think it's absurd the united states of course is still behind it even though robert gates and so on had a lot of reservations about it there were five abstentions for u.n. resolution one hundred seventy three and would have to the african union just not care about them because they unanimously didn't want what is going on now as for
5:06 am
the arab league a very very iffy support for this although for them it could be a win win as well you won't see any tunisian or egyptian help for this nature were operational to all i think that that question needs to be answered by all these nato leaders why do you think it is here in egypt are involved because they see a great danger of western powers trying to get involved with this oil rich nation i'm sure that there are people on the ground in the coalition from western agencies already planning the future and what the future government will be i fear it won't be got a democracy that we saw in the natural revolutions as it were in tune is here in egypt that is author and journalist action at a fancy speaking very well the the reasons behind the intervention in libya are constantly being questioned critics say it's strange that libya is being targeted in particular when there are several other violent uprisings in the arab world
5:07 am
parties daniel bushell reports on what else could be motivating the western powers . coalition leaders claim they are just in forcing the no fly zone over libya but have been engaged in widespread and heavy attacks on colonel gadhafi as ground forces and buildings and targets linked to his regime so what of the real motives for france the u.k. and u.s. leading the attack on libya some say it's pure vengeance but they're certainly settling accounts and taking revenge turkey says it's disturbed by france's eagerness to invade but expose believe ankara shouldn't be surprised if he's accused of ordering the bombing of u.t.a. flight seven seven two which killed fifty four french men and women in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine a u.k. called from the gadhafi agents the year before planned the bombing of pan am flight one hundred three over lockerbie which killed forty three british and a hundred eighty nine u.s.
5:08 am
citizens he blew up his intelligence agency did a terrorist bomb very similar to the lockerbie bomber in the u.k. it was called flight seventy two and it blew up of an asia with a loss of everyone on board so i would argue that there's an element of revenge by strong element of revenge that more recently gadhafi is hurt french commercial interests. he fly and french will for a towel have a billion dollars he also bought russian fighter planes instead of french or fell jets. but now coalition bombs are reported to be killing libyan civilians the turkish the west is resorting to heavy bombing and civilian casualties are of no concern. that could increase regional hatred towards the west after. the. resistance from. critics say the western led military alliance is simply taking one side in what's
5:09 am
an internal civil war where rebels seek to overthrow an internationally recognized government western forces should be prosecuted not just for civilian deaths but also for killing libyan conscripts ya know why. people. i mean told us that. the army as nato chiefs arrived to plan the next stage of the bombardment of libya there are growing calls for them to be held accountable for what they describe in war speak as collateral damage but which in brutal language means the death of innocent civilians the coalition no admits it's haunting gadhafi the original reason was only to impose a no fly zone the trouble is the more civilian deaths their bombing causes the more they risk being accused of the same crimes as gadhafi himself then you see brussels

a less us it dependent alliance. things that washington's been a babysitter for too long. and challenge is the who wake up call and opportunity for a bamma for a totally new ground between the united states and its and its european nato allies the united states commander in chief and the american president has a unique opportunity to reevaluate the military and security arrangements between the united states and western europe and finally lead the nato to take full responsibility and regain the full sovereignty from the american security and military. that could be a bit on one in only positive feature of the unfolding drama in libya right now. now middle east country locked into
