Casualties:

Residents of Benghazi told Al Jazeera that at least 200 people had died, while the New York-based Human Rights Watch put the countrywide death toll at a "conservative" 104 on 19 February, while an update on 22 February stated that there were at least 62 casualties. They also suggested the actual deaths in Benghazi had probably passed 100 on 20 February. Other sources list the number of deaths to be 220 in Benghazi alone. On 22 February the International Coalition Against War Criminals gave an estimate that 519 people had died, 3,980 were wounded and over 1,500 were missing.

Human Rights Watch have estimated that at least 233 people had been killed by February 22.

On 23 February Italy's Minister of Foreign Affairs Franco Frattini stated that according to his information 1,000 people had died so far.

Among the security forces there had been more than 300 dead, including mercenaries. On February 18, two policemen were hanged by protestors in Benghazi. Also, on the same day, 50 African mercenaries, mostly from Chad, were executed by the protestors in al-Baida when they burned down the police station in which they locked them up. Additionaly, another 11 captured mercenaries were lynched in al-Baida, Benghazi and Darnah. The bodies of some of them were put on display and caught on video. By February 23, the government confirmed that 111 soldiers had been killed. On February 24, the IFHR said that 130 soldiers had been executed in Benghazi and al-Baida, after they mutinied and sided with the protestors.

Thursday 24 February:

Protesters assumed complete control of Tobruk, where soldiers and residents celebrated by waving the former Libyan flag used between 1951 and 1969, firing guns into the air, honking horns, and chanting "the people demand the fall of the Colonel".[citation needed] Army units in Tobruk and throughout eastern Libya sided with protesters, with some soldiers and officers participating in demonstrations. Commanders pledged to defend the "liberated territory" with their lives after Gaddafi threatened to take it back by force. Two airmen bailed out of their jet, which crashed into the desert, after defying orders to bomb Tobruk. In the collapse of central authority, residents formed public defence committees for security, and opened welfare organizations to ensure that residents had enough to eat. At newly established security checkpoints, demonstrators handed out bottled water and juice to passing motorists.

Cities and towns close to Tripoli were reported to be falling to protesters, while in Tripoli itself, pro-Gaddafi militia patrolled the streets to prevent demonstrations.[148] In the east, civilian protesters and military units that had defected and reorganized armed themselves to prepare for an upcoming "Battle of Tripoli". Meanwhile Gaddafi prepared for the defense of the city by gathering pro-government forces in the capital and deploying tanks in the suburbs.

The North African wing of al-Qaeda announced that they would support the Libyan uprising.[150] In a televised phone call to the people of Az Zawiyah, where fighting was taking place, Gaddafi claimed the revolts could be blamed on bin Laden, and that young Libyans had been duped with drugs and alcohol.[151] Gaddafi dispatched an envoy to Zawiyah, who warned protesters of a "massacre" if they didn't leave.

Pro-Gaddafi Libyan forces and foreign mercenaries opened fire on a mosque in Zawiya, where residents, some armed with hunting rifles, had been holding a sit-in to support the protesters in Tripoli. The troops blasted the mosque's minaret with an anti-aircraft gun, killing 10 people and wounding 150. Thousands of people then gathered in Zawiyah's main square to demonstrate against Gaddafi. Hours after the attack, Gaddafi gave a speech on state television, where he expressed condolences for the deaths, but scolded the city's residents for siding with the uprising, saying "shame on you, people of Zawiyah, control your children", and that "they are loyal to Bin Laden. What do you have to do with Bin Laden, people of Zawiyah? They are exploiting young people... I insist it is Bin Laden". He also blamed teenagers on hallucinogenic pills given to them "in their coffee with milk, like Nescafe".

Libya today - If Colonel Gaddafi flees Libya by plane will fate play a hand....

& he suffers the same fate as the 270 people killed when the Boeing 747 crashed over Lockerbie Scotland?

December 22nd 1998

John Stapleton presents coverage of the Lockerbie bombing the morning after on BBC Breakfast Time.

The attack, on a Pan Am Boeing 747 killed 270 people, including eleven people who were killed on the ground when the jumbo jet, which had been bombed by terrorists, crashed on the Scottish town of Lockerbie.
.

The Lockerbie bombing was ordered personally by Colonel Gaddafi, according to quotes attributed to Libya’s ex-justice minister who resigned recently in protest at the clampdown on anti-government demonstrators.

270 people were killed when the Pan Am flight exploded over the Scottish town on its way to New York.

In an interview with Expressen, a Swedish tabloid newspaper, Mustafa Abdel-Jalil is quoted as saying he has proof that Gaddafi gave the order. The paper did not say what the proof was.

Libya today - Efforts stepped up to bring Britons out of Libya as Royal Navy frigate moves into position 23.02.11

The Foreign Office is sending a charter plane to Libya in the next 48 hours to bring Britons home as HMS Cumberland takes up position in international waters. It is the latest move by Foreign Secretary William Hague who last night pledged to step up efforts to help British citizens leave the country. The Type 22 frigate is on standby and further military help for UK citizens has not been ruled out. Meanwhile a military plane has brought out 32 Dutch nationals from Libya. The KDC-10 returned safely to Eindhoven Airport in the Netherlands. The pilot told reporters that the evacuation went without a hitch and that Air Traffic Control at Tripoli airport had been functioning normally. Fifty people from Belgium, Britain and the United States were also on the plane, the Dutch airforce's biggest carrier aircraft. Some British Embassy staff and families who are not needed to deal with the current situation in Libya are leaving while Foreign Office personnel trained in crisis response are being sent out. More than 200 people have been killed in the past two nights of clashes on the streets of Libya. In a defiant and rambling address on state television, Colonel Gaddafi promised to die a martyr rather than leave the country he has ruled for 41 years. He said: "I am a fighter, a revolutionary from tents ... I will die as a martyr at the end," he said, vowing to fight "to my last drop of blood". The UN Security Council has demanded an "immediate end" to the violence in Libya and condemned the bloody crackdown on anti-government protesters.

Libya today - Benghazi Libya-lawyer Abdul Salam speaks cuneiform / Benghazi Libya-المحامي عبد السلام المسماري يتحدث

تقرير: عمر الكدي-إذاعة هولندا العالمية/ تواصلت الاحتجاجات اليوم في أكثر من مدينة في ليبيا، وقد جوبهت بقمع شديد من قبل السلطات، التي هددت بـ "رد صاعق" على من وصفتهم بـ "المغامرين". وأدانت منظمة هيومان رايتس ووتش في بيان شديد اللهجة ما اسمته "الاعتداءات الهمجية لأجهزة الأمن على المتظاهرين السلميين". ونقلت المنظمة الدولية عن شهود عيان أن 24 قتيلاً قد سقطوا في أنحاء مختلفة من البلاد.


في بنغازي، ثاني كبرى المدن الليبية، اعتصم عشرة آلاف شخص أمام محكمة شمال بنغازي، يقودهم القضاة والمحامون أعضاء نقابة المحامين بالمدينة، وقرروا البقاء في الميدان الذي سيتحول إلى ميدان "تحرير بنغازي"، حيث أقاموا صلاة الجمعة، وصلاة الجنازة على أربعة عشر قتيلا سقطوا يوم أمس، معظمهم في شارع شارع جمال عبد الناصر خلال اشتباكات بين المتظاهرين وقوات الأمن الليلة الماضية، كما بلغ عدد الجرحى 48 جريحا.

الاستعانة بالمرتزقة
وفي حديث مع إذاعتنا أكد المحامي عبد السلام المسماري من ساحة المعتصمين، أن الأهالي في مدينتي درنة والبيضاء سيطروا على المدينتين، وطردوا الكتائب الأمنية والمرتزقة منهما. وكانت قوات الدعم المركزي في مدينة البيضاء قد انحازت للأهالي في مدينة البيضاء، عندما لاحظوا وجود مرتزقة أفارقة مما مكن الأهالي من إحكام سيطرتهم على المدينة. وتفيد أخبار لم نتأكد بعد من صحتها، بأن أهالي البيضاء بدعم من أهالي مدينة شحات وسوسة، تمكنوا من احتلال مطار الأبرق، وتدمير مهابط المطار.
