qaddafi s troops in control to our south. we have video that came from a soldier s cell phone video. they said it is from ajdabiya. they told us it came from a qaddafi soldier s cell phone of this onslaught of rockets being fired towards a target, presumably ajdabiya, 90 miles to our south, where qaddafi s tanks and troops are in control of that town. rebels push down that why, trying to regain that city, which is a gateway between benghazi and tripoli, but so far, having little success, and in fact, suffering many, many casualties. we spoke earlier today with a spokesperson for this transitional government that
