| 100. Gaddafi planned civilian killings, Hague court says |
|
(Reuters) - The International Criminal Court has evidence Muammar Gaddafi's government planned to put down protests by killing civilians before the uprising in Libya broke out, the ICC's prosecutor said on Tuesday. Protests against the government that began on February 15 swiftly descended into civil war after Gaddafi's forces opened fire on demonstrators. He then put down uprisings in Libya's west, leaving the east and the city of Misrata in rebel hands. NATO-led air power is now holding the balance in Libya, preventing Gaddafi's forces from overrunning the seven-week old revolt, but unable for now to hand the rebels outright victory. The United Nations Security Council, which on March 17 sanctioned air strikes on Libyan government forces to prevent them killing civilians, in February referred Libya to the ICC, the world's first permanent war crimes court. more, two pages... http://uk.reuters.com/article/2011/04/05/uk-libya-idUKL... |
