Pro-Gadhafi fighters put up resistance in Sirte

Colonel Gadhafi’s fighters are still putting up fierce resistance at his compound in Tripoli, and making sporadic attacks elsewhere in the capital and other areas of the country.  More than a day after the Colonel’s compound was stormed by rebels, a BBC correspondent there says the situation is still precarious. But away from the capital – several other towns are still in the hands of fighters loyal to Colonel Gadhafi.  The rebels say they’re exchanging heavy rocket fire with about a thousand Gaddafi loyalists on the road leading to the Colonel’s home town of Sirte, and are bringing up reinforcements. Paul Wood, from our partner the BBC, is with those heading for Gadhafi’s  home town.
