Zašto nebi bila greška, ko će da razlikuje te borce na zemlji? A još došli sa oklopnjacima. U Iraćkom ratu je više vojnika NATO uginulo u prijateljskoj vatri negu u direktnim okršajima sa vojskom Sadama Huseina.
boksi ::Nekoliko sati posle napada, postalo je jasno da su avioni NATO napali konvoj od 17 tenkova tipa T-55 i T-72, koje su pobunjenici nameravali da ubace u bitku, kao i da su uništena najmanje tri, dok je četvrti teško oštećen. Osim tenkova u konvoju se nalazilo desetak višecevnih raketnih bacača i oklopnih transportera.
Занимљиво да се побуњеници сликају само у караванима пикапа, а да је мало слика њиховог оклопа - иако су га скупили доста, очигледно. Видећемо да ли ће бити слика и овог уништеног оклопа.
Citat:Американци размишљају о слању копнених трупа, свега неколико дана пошто су извукли авионе из акције. Чека се процена о спољним утицајима на побуњенике.
НАТО одбио да се извини због страдња побуњеника у јучерашњем нападу код Бреге, јер се до јуче није знало да побуњеници имају тенкове, преноси Би-Би-Си.
Citat:Rear Adm Harding, speaking in Naples, described the situation between the towns of Ajdabiya and Brega - where the attack happened - as "very fluid" with vehicles "going backwards and forwards".
He said government tanks known to have previously targeted civilians in the town of Misrata had been on the road on Thursday. At that point, Nato did not know that rebel troops had begun to bring out their tanks.
"It would appear that two of our strikes yesterday may have resulted in the deaths of a number of [rebel] forces who were operating main battle tanks," he said on Friday.
"I'm not apologising," he told reporters.
"The situation on the ground, as I said, was extremely fluid and remains extremely fluid. Up until yesterday, we had no information that the ... opposition forces were using tanks," he added.
"Our role is to protect civilians. Tanks have been used in the past to directly target civilians."
Citat:Reuters quotes rebels as saying they are fighting Gaddafi forces trying to enter the city of Misurata from the east.
Citat:Al Jazeera's Laurence Lee, in Benghazi, says reports are emerging that it might not have been NATO that hit a rebel armoured unit outside Brega. He says it might instead have been a light plane used by Gaddafi forces, suggesting that they are getting arms from outside.

Citat:On Thursday, Abdel Fattah Younes, the defected head of the rebel military, confirmed for the first time that the opposition forces have received foreign weapons: anti-tank guns from Qatar. The tiny but wealthy Gulf country has been at the forefront of support for Libya's anti-Gaddafi movement, offering them official recognition and to be a broker for their oil.
