Прямо над городом был сбит и упал на жилой район самолет - представитель военного руководства повстанцев заявил, что это их самолет и сбили его кадафисты. (видео сбития на сайте ББС, фотографии там же).



Западные журналисты в Бегнази свидетельствуют, что по городу несколько часов уже ведется ракетный обстрел, танки кадафистов вошли в южный пригород и там идут бои (журналист попал в перестрелку).

Все это на фоне перманентных официальных заявлений кадафисткого правительства (эту лживую шайку, к сожалению, до сих пор транслируют по всем сми), что они типа объявили перемирие и, мол, подавайте нам миссию ООН.

Это пока не конец света - потому что все же город миллионный и парой тысячей даже отборных солдат его не взять. Но в Бенгази на этой неделе вроде уже арестовали несколько групп засланных кадафистов, так что есть вероятность саботажа изнутри.

there were some explosions in the night. People said grads. I think not. Some booms right now too. Unclear what exactly.

very, very big fire on south side of benghazi (looking at it from balcony). There have been a bunch of booms prior.

A reliable friend says was in a house with window damage, pockmarks on external wall in Hay Dular, Benghazi - thinks rocket hit near.

At any rate, while i don't know exactly what's happening, Qaddafi has once again broken promised ceasefire.

eyewitness: Fighter plane in flames crashes in benghazi, south side. (i am the eyewitness.)

Was just on south side of city, heading to plane crash. Group of shabaab, I, came under small arms fire. Presumed qaddafi forces.

Lots of heavier stuff now, as well. Prolly artillery, tank shells. I'm staying off the streets now.

the bungdan regime says qaddafi has started assault (prolly a probe) on Benghazi, unprovoked. I seen it.

AJ says #libya govt denies attacking benghazi. Flat lie. I just came under small arms fire, there have been rocket attacks for hours now.

see warship moving towards #benghazi #libya. Far, my guess the turkish AA one that was here two days ago.

cnn here in benghazi says rebel leadership says jet shot down was theirs. If they say that, should prolly believe it.

lots of shabaab here think qaddafi revolutionary guards that have been hiding #benghazi came out to fight today. unconfirmed.


Его статья:
«Starting at about 3 am, intermittent rocket fire began to hit the outskirts of Benghazi and by dawn, had drawn closer. At least three homes in the Hay Dolar area in the south of the city took rocket damage, say two witnesses who visited the homes.
...
By 8 am, there were at least three fires burning within the city, in areas that had come under assault. At around 9 am, a fighter jet in flames crashed in the south of the city, sending up a fireball and a billowing cloud of black smoke over the sky.
...
Every piece of information available on the ground here in Benghazi indicates the Libyan government’s claim is false. Even if rebel forces had sought to engage Qaddafi’s forces in the desert outside the city, most of the fire today has been directed at civilian neighborhoods within city limits.

Еще описание боев в Бенгази сегодня:
«The Gaddafi forces used Girad Soviet-made rockets to pound the outskirts of the city, destroying homes and incinerating rebel cars. Loyalist tanks apparently made it to the west of Benghazi before being captured. The streets showed signs of tank tracks, and cars had been flattened as if run over by tanks. Rebel soldiers claim to have captured eight of Gaddafi’s tanks.

Gaddafi’s forces attempted to enter Benghazi from several sides, prompting rebel forces to push back with a wave of trucks.

During a battle for the western gate, where rebel fighters gathered with small arms and rocket-propelled grenades, toyotas mounted with anti-aircraft guns pushed forward. Bullets flew from different directions sporadically.

Grenades and bullets left homes on the western side of Benghazi pockmarked. Residents said Gaddafi fighers wearing civilian clothes were holed up in several building from which they had begun randomly shooting cars on Saturday morning.

Чей самолет? Надо установить модель. Кроме того, на снимках видно, что пилот успел катапультироваться. Значит, надо поймать/представить пилота.

Seems there's no way yet to tell if the jet was opposition or Gaddafi. Could be a MIG-23, but both sides are using them.
Other observers say downed jet is a Mirage. If so, that would indicate it's probably a Gaddafi jet. I've only heard of rebels having MIGs.



It looks like a Sukhoi Su-17

Журналисты Sky News:
«Sky's Emma Hurd, who witnessed the crash in Benghazi, said: "We saw it circling, then the sound of anti-aircraft fire, then the plane crashed in flames.

"Planes had been circling above the heavily populated areas before heading to the south to apparently bomb the rebel areas.
....
Hurd said: "This morning what we've been hearing the distant rumble of what sounds like artillery fire or tank fire."

Anti-aircraft guns firing at #Gaddafi jets across the city of #Benghazi

I'm hearing the revolutionary jet downed today morning over #Benghazi was friendly fire...

I think the random bombing of residential neighborhoods aimed at causing an exodus out so his troops can move in for some photo-ops.

Журналист CNN:
Earlier today talked to people in Misrata and Zintan #Libya, they said there had been attacks there as well.

Zintan, 30 #Gadafi fighters killed many tanks & hardware captured, #Gadafi forces retreated (цифры преувеличенные как обычно в таких сообщениях)

«March 19 (Reuters) - A witness told Al Arabiya television on Saturday that Zintan in western Libya was being bombarded and Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's tanks were approaching the town. "Now we are being bombed in Zintan from more than one direction: from the north and the south," said the witness, who was not identified.

"There are tanks heading towards the southern entrance of Zintan, around 20 to 30 tanks, which are hitting the city and residential areas in the south," he said.

@iyad_elbaghdadi
OK guys, no point remaining secretive about zero hour as communicated to me two days ago. After dark Tripoli time.
Gaddafi the bastard never allowed Libyans into his complex. Now the place is crawling with them including children. Human shields.
The bastard is using human shields all over #Libya. Including children. He wants collateral damage. He wants boots on the ground.
I'm hearing he's also gathering civilians at Gardabia airbase in Sirte too. More human shields.
There are strong suspicions that his TV control & broadcasting is directly from Bab al Azizia.


Libyan State TV Showing Families (Mostly Children) supporting #Gaddafi in Bab Al Azaziyah!!!

журналист CNN в Триполи: Response here so far: TV shows shows pix of small proGadhafi group at palace & at Tripoli airport, “protecting” it from air strike and also “protecting” Sirte airport. Even by state TV standards, all these “crowds” are very small.. several dozen people max.

О том как США наконец решились перейти от слов к делу - рассказ о внутренних боях внутри американской администрации:
«The change became possible, though, only after Mrs. Clinton joined Samantha Power, a senior aide at the National Security Council, and Susan Rice, Mr. Obama’s ambassador to the United Nations, who had been pressing the case for military action, according to senior administration officials speaking only on condition of anonymity. Ms. Rice was an Africa adviser to President Clinton when the United States failed to intervene to stop the Rwanda genocide, which Mr. Clinton has called his biggest regret.»

Misurata is still in free people's control, despite heavy attacks, shelling, many casualties the city is strong

«Reuters - Residents of the rebel-held Libyan city of Misrata said government snipers were shooting people from rooftops on Saturday and the hospital could not operate on the wounded because it had no anaesthetic.
...
Local people said there was some shelling in the city on Saturday morning -- though not as heavy as the previous day -- and that the city was facing a humanitarian crisis because water supplies were cut for a third day.
»

В большей части города нет электричества (саботированы основные электростанции), воды уже третий день нет (кадафисты саботировали водную станцию), в городе почти не работает телефонная связь - пока еще есть интернет. В больницах аврал, они переполнены - нет анастетиков, нет никаких препаратов из-за трехнедельной гуманитарной блокады (там же не только раненые, но и онкологические больные и другие). Город отрезан и изолирован.
