In news from Libya, forces loyal to Col. Muammar Gaddafi have succeeded in taking back several key cities from rebel forces, including the oil port cities of Ras Lanuf and Port Brega. The next battlefront is expected to be the city of Ajdabiya, about 95 miles south of Benghazi. On Saturday, unidentified gunmen killed an Al Jazeera cameraman named Ali Hassan al-Jaber in the city of Benghazi. Meanwhile, the the Arab League has called on the U.N. Security Council to impose a no-fly zone on Libya and said Gaddafi’s government had lost legitimacy. President Obama spoke about Libya during his news conference on Friday.

President Barack Obama: “Across the board, we are slowly tightening the noose on Gaddafi. He is more and more isolated internationally both through sanctions as well as an arms embargo. In addition to that, we’ve provided a host of humanitarian aid measures to make sure that people are not adversely affected as they cross the borders into Tunisia or Egypt, and we will continue to do that. And what we’ve done is we’ve organized in NATO a series of conversations about a wide range of options that we can take.”
