Libya rebel council rejects talks with Gaddafi
The chairman of the rebel National Libyan Council, Mustafa Abdel Jalil, said he rejected the concept of talks with Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi entirely, an Al Jazeera correspondent reported on Thursday.
Abdel Jalil also said no one had been contacted regarding an initiative by Venezuela to end the Libyan crisis.
The Arab League's Amr Moussa had told Reuters on Thursday that a peace plan by Venezuela was under consideration, but no decision had been taken.
Meanwhile, air strikes targeted the airport of the oil terminal town of Brega in east Libya on Thursday and a rebel position in the nearby town of Ajdabiyah, a rebel officer said, referring to two rebel-held locations.
