Libya violence escalates (02:09) Report


TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's four-decade-old rule appeared in increasing jeopardy on Monday when days of anti-government protests reached the capital for the first time and security forces killed dozens of people.

Military aircraft fired live ammunition at crowds of anti-government protesters in the capital Tripoli, Al Jazeera television said on Monday quoting witnesses. No independent verification of the report was immediately available.

Residents said several cities in the east appeared to be in the hands of the opposition as protests spread from Benghazi, the cradle of a popular uprising that threatens to overthrow one of the Arab world's most entrenched governments.

One of Gaddafi's sons said the veteran leader would fight the revolt until "the last man standing".

Protesters rallied in Tripoli's streets, tribal and religious leaders spoke out against Gaddafi, and army units defected to the opposition in a revolt that has cost the lives of more than 200 people.

Some analysts suggested Libya was heading for civil war.

"Libya is the most likely candidate for civil war because the government has lost control over part of its own territory," said Shadi Hamid, director of research at the Brookings Doha Center in Qatar.

"I think what's going to happen is going to be much more chaotic than what we saw in Egypt or Tunisia. Gaddafi and his sons don't have anywhere else to go...They are going to fight," said North Africa analyst Geoff Porter, contributor to political risk consultancy Wikistrat.

"LAST, DESPERATE ACTS"

Output at one of Libya's oil fields was reported to have been stopped by a workers' strike and some European oil companies withdrew expatriate workers and suspended operations. Most of Libya's oil fields are in the east, south of Benghazi.

Anti-government protests have also broken out in the central town of Ras Lanuf, the site of an oil refinery and petrochemical complex, Libya's Quryna newspaper said on its website on Monday.

A Libyan man, Soula al-Balaazi, who said he was an opposition activist, told the network by telephone that Libyan air force warplanes had bombed "some locations in Tripoli".

An analyst for London-based consultancy Control Risks said that indicated the end was approaching for Gaddafi.

"These really seem to be last, desperate acts. If you're bombing your own capital, it's really hard to see how you can survive, " said Julien Barnes-Dacey, Control Risks' Middle East analyst.

British Foreign Secretary William Hague said earlier that Gaddafi might be heading for Venezuela, which is ruled by his friend President Hugo Chavez, but a senior government source in Caracas denied that.

In signs of disagreement inside Libya's ruling elite, the justice minister resigned in protest at the "excessive use of violence" against protesters. In India, Libya's ambassador said he was resigning in protest at the violent crackdown.

UJUMBE HUMU:

Familia ya Kolonel Gaddafi sasa waweza kukamatwa na kupelekwa mahakama ya kimataifa The Hague kujibu mashtaka dhidi yao kuamrisha mauaji kwa makusudi ya raia wasiokua na silaha mikononi.

Siwezi hata kidogo kuona hili likikwepwa hivi karibuni na familia hii.

The BBC has received reports of ongoing fighting west of Tripoli between regular soldiers and forces loyal to the regime. Amid mounting violence across the country, there are unconfirmed reports that Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has left the capital, Tripoli. His exact whereabouts are unknown but United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon said he had spoken to him to express deep concern at the escalating violence.

An interesting development in London. Krishnan Guru-Murthy of Channel 4 news has just tweeted that the Libyan embassy in London has replaced the official national flag with the pre-Gaddafi era version, favoured by many of those involved in the current uprising.

This photo has been sent into Al Jazeera, claiming to show troops moving into Tripoli. As with several other online photos and videos posted in, there's no way to confirm its veracity, although we are receiving many reports of military and paramilitary presence in and around the capital.

Saif Al Gaddafi suspended from the Forum of Young Global Leaders



Following the recent developments in Libya the Forum of Young Global Leaders has taken the following decision.

Saif Al Gaddafi was appointed as a Young Global Leader at a time when it appeared that he represented the potential for a future Libyan government that was more progressive, more concerned for human rights and more open to the possibilities of political reform.

When there were doubts about his position, earlier this year, we decided not to act or to suspend his membership in view of the very difficult Swiss-Libyan relations during the last two years, to which we did not want to give further cause for deterioration.

After the events of the last days in Libya and his direct intervention, it is clear that potential has not been fulfilled and that it is impossible for him to continue as a member of our community.

We are therefore suspending his membership in the YGL Community with immediate effect.

The Forum of Young Global Leaders will continue to make the tough calls on the future of leadership - both in the selection phase or in suspension of membership - to protect the integrity of this values-driven community.

Mohamed Toumi, mfungwa wa kisiasa, kipindi cha nyuma, asema mauaji yanayofanywa na Rais Gaddafi dhidi ya sauti pinzani nchini humo ni wa kutisha ajabu.

"Kwa kweli naamini familia hii inatumia nguvu za giza kuongoza nchi yetu na kutia kafara damu za watu wengi mno kila wakati; Mungu mkuwa kwa kupona kwangu na kuweza kukimbilia nchi za nje," aongeza huyu raia mkandamizwa wa Libya.
