Libya update

The Libyan revolutionaries with backing from Benghazi are pushing West and have taken control of the major oil installations in Ras Lanuf and Marsa Al-Burayqah. In the West an attempt by pro-regime forces to retake Az-Zawiyah (just 30 miles from Tripoli) has been repelled though the revolutionaries are heavily outgunned (the pro-regime forces have tanks, they don't) and around 60 fighters have been martyred defending the town. The martyrs are God's beloved. Pray for their victory.
