Similar boats have previously been used by the regime to attempt to mine the harbour. #Libya

The regime artillery on the coast fired an inaccurate salvo of rockets at HMS Liverpool. #Libya

HMS Liverpool immediately returned fire with her 4.5" gun, which silenced the shore battery. #Libya

As a result of the prompt action by HMS Liverpool and the other NATO warships, Colonel Qadhafi's boats abandoned their operation.
