Libya Teeters on the Brink


Libya Teeters on the Brink
(Euronews: 0600 PST, February 22, 2011) Latest amateur pictures from Tripoli and Benghazi show how the east of Libya is in uproar as its leader Colonel Gaddafi appears to be losing his grip on power. The revolt against him seems to be gaining strength by the hour, but it is still unclear if the people will prevail. Fighting has spread to the capital Tripoli, and Human Rights Watch now estimates the numbers of people killed to be as many as 400, although heavy rain this morning is keeping things calmer.
