libya. moammar gadhafi forces bomb the contested port city of misrata. at least five cities, mostly in the eastern part of libya, are under rebel control. a rebel spokesman says the bombings in misrata destroyed six fuel containers and caused a massive fire. joining me now here in washington, nato secretary-general arrnders fogh rasmuss rasmussen. thanks so much for being here, mr. secretary-general. appreciate it. you re welcome. do you need in nato, in this military mission over libya, the return of those low-flying u.s. planes to try to stop some of the ongoing violence from gadhafi? the u.s. already participates which we highly appreciate. not with the low-flying planes. yeah, but the europeans provide a number of very important assets, so in conclusion we have stopped gadhafi in his track. his time is running out. he s more and more isolated.
