The son of embattled Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has warned that the country is on the verge of civil war. His speech to the nation came as anti-government protests raged in the two major cities.
Protestors apparently took control of the second city, Benghazi, and heavy gunfire was reported in the capital, Tripoli. At least 100 people have been killed.
Saif al-Islam Gaddafi vowed in his speech to fight the unrest "until the last man standing".
But Gaddafi confirmed that a lot of the military's tanks and artillery were now in the hands of the anti-government protesters
