BBC news with Iain Purdon.
Libyan rebels are still fighting troops loyal to Colonel Gadhafi for control of Tripoli.The rebels say they've taken over most of the capital but are facing stiff resistence in some areas.Matthew Price is in Tripoli.
Tripoli today is a tale of two cities.In one,jubilant opposition supporters believe they are finally witnessing the end of Colonel Gadhafi.Gunmen controlled the streets of their neighborhoods.Pro-Gadhafi forces are nowhere to be seen. The other Tripoli is one of anxiety,of fear,of heavy weapons and explosions. The battle for the city is not over.From Colonel Gadhafi's compound, smoke can be seen rising as the two sides fight for control there.And here,around the hotel where foreign journalists have stayed ever since this uprising began,Gadhafi supporters controlled the streets. The premature celebration of last night seems not to have been repeated during the day.Instead,many stay indoors, wondering how long the fight for Tripoli will last.Colonel Gadhafi's whereabouts remain unknown.The head of the Rebel National Transitional Council,Mustafa Abdul Jalil,says the real moment of victory will come when Libyan leader is captured. From Banghazi,Paul Wood reports.
In the early hours of the morning,the jubilant crowds in Banghazi celebrated the passing of Colonel Gadhafi's rule with volleys of automatic fire. But late in the day,here in the birth place,the revolution, there was a more sober warning of the dangers posed by the victory unfolding in the capital. The leader of the national transitional council,Mustafa Jalil,said he was worried there could be revenge attacks if military commanders ignored him and carried out reprisals, he said, he would resign, a threat which gives a glimpse of the tensions within the movement now on the brink of forming a new government.
President Obama has praised the Libyan people for what he called their extraordianry sacrifice in defying the Gadhafi regime and fighting to overthrow it.
Your courage and character have been unbreakable in the face of the tyrant.An ocean divides us, but we're joined in the basic human longing for freedom,for justice and for dignity. Your revolution is your own.And your sacrifices have been extraordinary. Now, the Libya that you deserve is within your reach. Going forward, we'll stay in close coordination with the TNC to support that outcome.
In another reacton ,the UN Scretary general Ban Ki-moon warned that all the UN members have a duty to comply with the international criminal court ,which's issued arrest warrants against Colonel Gadhafi ,his son Saif Al-Islam and his intelligence chief.
The International organization for migration says it has sent up a ship to Tripoli to evacuate migrants.It can carry 300 passengers and it's expected to arrive on Tuesday.
World news from the BBC.
The UN chief Ban Ki-moon says it's troubling that president Al-Assad of Syria has not kept his word about halting military operations to crush anti-government protests. The Syrian president made the pledge in a phone conversation with Ban last week.The UN human rights council is currently holding an emergency session on Syria that's expected to order a full investigation into government violence against protestors.
New York prosecutors have asked judges to drop sexual assault charges made against the former head of the international monetary fund Dominique Strauss-Kahn.This follows a meeting between the district attorney and the hotel worker who made the allegations.Caroline Hepker is in New York.
The 62-year-olds, Mr Strauss-Kahn,was accused of the sexual encounter in a five-star hotel in Manhantten a few months ago. And initially the case was thought to be extremely strong but it later ,over the weeks,seemed to fall apart as there was serious question over the credibility of the woman over the alleged victim and the story she gives to the prosecutors and also in later media appearances over the weeks about exactly what happens as well.
The United Nations says at least 600 people are known to have died and 1,000 wounded in ethnic clashes in south Sudan. The violence erupted on Thursday in Jonglei state. There've been worries about stability in south Sudan,which has been independent for just over 1 month.
