Witnesses say a town in the rebel-held east of Libya has come under air attacks and forces loyal to leader Muammar Gaddafi have retaken a nearby oil facility.
The witnesses told The Associated Press they saw two warplanes bomb the eastern part of the town of Ajdabiya at 10am local time on Wednesday.
They also said that pro-Gaddafi forces were advancing on the town, some 750km east of the capital Tripoli.
Ahmed Jerksi, manager of the Sirte oil company which runs the facility in the eastern town of Brega, said pro-Gaddafi forces retook control of the facility, southwest of Ajdabiya.
