NATO set to decide when to end mission in Libya
None
NATO's governing body will meet on Friday to decide when and how to end the seven-month bombing campaign over Libya. After Libya's former rebels killed Muammar Gaddafi on Thursday, officials said they expected the operation to end very soon. But the alliance may decide to keep air patrols flying over the Libya for several more days until security stabilizes.
The final decision will depend on the recommendation of Adm. Jim Stavridis, the supreme allied commander. NATO's Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Thursday that after the latest developments, the end of the campaign "has now moved much closer." (AP)
