Attacks by Gaddafi forces damage rebel oil fields

None

A Libyan rebel spokesman says three days of attacks by forces loyal to ruler Muammar Gaddafi have halted production in rebel-held oil fields.

 

The rebels, who have seized control of a swath of eastern Libya since mid-February, have struck a deal with Qatar to market their oil. The profits will go to the rebel's political leadership, who say they will pay salaries and buy food, medicine and arms to fight Gaddafi. (AP)
