Two powerful blasts thought to be caused by an air attack rocked Tripoli early Wednesday as a NATO warplane flew over the city.
The explosions came after a night of shooting as fighting continued following the storming of Libyan leader Muammer Gaddafi’s compound by rebel fighters.
The leader of a rebel group told an AFP correspondent that pro-Gaddafi fighters were hidden on the road to Tripoli airport.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy said in Paris he had agreed with his US counterpart Barack Obama to continue military action against Gaddafi under the March UN mandate until he lays down his weapons.
