A spokesman for the Libyan regime called the air strikes conducted by international military forces in Libya barbaric.
Libyan regime spokesperson Musa Ibrahim attributed the recent unrest in Libya to the work of al-Qaida forces active in the country.
Starting Saturday afternoon, a five-nation coalition force started air raids and missile attacks on Libyan military targets and air defense systems. The United States, France, Canada, Britain and Italy are so far involved in the military actions.
Gadhafi’s spokesman showed defiance over the attacks saying they were unfair since Libya adhered to Thursday’s United Nations Security Council resolution. The U.N. resolution called on Libya to stop all military actions against civilians.
On Friday, Gadhafi declared a ceasefire, yet his troops continued to fight, moving into the opposition stronghold of Benghazi on Saturday morning.
The Libyan spokesperson called for U.N. observers on the ground to monitor what he called civilian deaths as a result of the air strikes.
