The revolution in Libya is growing stronger as anti-government forces take control of a city 50 kilometres west of the capital Tripoli.
Anti-government forces are calling for leader Moammar Gadhafi to step down.
The UN Security Council has imposed the country with an arms embargo, a call for member nations to freeze the assets of Gadhafi and his family, and a travel ban for them as well.
Meanwhile, Gadhafi’s son Saif Al-Islam has said his father and family don’t have the kind of fortune the UN suspects.
U-S Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says the U-S is reaching out to Libyans and offering to help them anyway they can as rebels continue to control the city of Zawiya.
