Gunfire in Libya capital as protesters march
Militias loyal to Muammar Gadhafi fired in the air today to disperse marches by regime opponents defying a fierce clampdown to attempt their first major protest in the Libyan capital Tripoli in days. Across rebellious cities in the east, thousands held rallies in support of the Tripoli protesters.
Protesters streamed out of a mosque in central Tripoli after prayers, chanting for Gaddafi's resignation, and they were confronted by a force of troops and militiamen near Green Square, said one witness. The militiamen fired in the air, sending some in the anti-Gaddafi crowd running, he said.

+++ Soldaten schießen in Tripolis +++
[13.42 Uhr] In der libyschen Hauptstadt Tripolis eröffneten Soldaten das Feuer, als etwa 500 Demonstranten zum Grünen Platz zog. Die Regime-Gegner riefen: "Es gibt nur einen Gott und der Märtyrer ist der Liebling Gottes." Sie bekundeten ihre Solidarität mit der Stadt Bengasi, die inzwischen nicht mehr von den Regierungstruppen kontrolliert wird. Ein Augenzeuge sagte, die Soldaten hätten zuerst nur in die Luft geschossen. Ob es Opfer gab, ist bisher unklar.

Text Messages from the Gov’t
Yesterday, they started sending us text messages at night telling us to go back to normal, to go to work and to start our life in an ordinary fashion. They kept sending messages saying that school should start again. A lot of text messages kept being sent on phones. But what happened in the morning I think, is that absolutely nobody went even close to schools. I would say that 98% of shops are closed in Tripoli. If you notice, they started cleaning the streets and painting over the writings on walls and the marks of the fire that happened in the past few days they just made a big move all at once to make the city look like nothing happened. But if you look closely you can still see that they did a very bad job painting it over. It looks like they are hiding something and if you look above you can see bullet marks on a lot of buildings, squares and even on some Mosques. The people who are going around the city are obviously not from Tripoli. You can tell from the license plates. Every area here has it is own license plate, so when you go around and look at the license plates you can see that 90% of them are not locals.
