The Defend secretary William Fox said that the event in Lybia should have a bearing on the defend's review. 


"It would seem a bit over fouly to tear a top, because of the event in one week - the Middle East, let's see how it settle down. We always said that the defend review isn't a single event but it is a process and that is something it has to look up on a very regular basic and it is what you would expect the defend of the country to doubt with.


Britain has announed a major shift in the way it deliver international aid, the funding for 60 countries including Russia and China would be face down.

Thank you Von, you are listening to the World Tonight with Ritula Shah.


The Libyan capital Tripoli has appeared to be settling to an un-easy calm. But beyond the city there are different stories, both [place name] and [place name] lie just outside Tripoli and both has seen fighting between pro and anti government forces. Tonight has concerned mouth about the civilian [people name] has fight on. The U.S and Europe is still discussing the possiblity of implementing a no-fly zone over Libya. 

[08:05]


A short time ago, I spoke to an Italian doctor, who wants to remain anonomous, she just returned from Tripoli and she described what's it like there:


" I think there are time in night time where there was a lot of concern about people has been disappeared and they has been kidnapped overnight, the weather has contributed to the kind of over-vulnable atmosphere fear 'cause it's quite windy and it everytime in the windows checking during the night and people kind of jump in the place thinking this is us now, we are protesting, certainly I has experienced that in my last few night in Tripoli. 


They were sleepless night, hearing the noises, all shooting and air blades, after all, it was terrible, very bad. 


And what's about the day time, what's like then: "The, the I witness over there was horrible to describe, nothing off from shooting with civilian passing by, it was so aggressive and barbaric in a way that even passing by car and pedestrian on the street cause the quite ... Randomly shooting, oh, all untargeting using sort of type of mechine gun and the .. I just heard from a neightboor who has gone to funeral of the lady who step down to the bacony because she feel it was so unsafe for her kids to stay outside and she got hit by a bullet in the head and die and instantly passing by car and the whole family get injuries. It's so bad, and the story kind of pu-gress over the time while I was there. The people who has shot in the street and was carried back to their houses and all the rule while the shooting has had happened, people was opening their door to let the injuried civilian just to stepping in the house and just at least get be a little bit safe with the shotting, where should they be treated. 


[10:25]



People was very frighten but do you think they still have the determination to carry on protesting. Well, to be honest, in my point of view, frighten is not the word to be described the emotion and what's going on, it was just such a horrible feeling. I drive around the city to say goodbye to my friend and my relativ before I left and all I can see is desert street, shut shop, school with no kids, nobody is turning up. Only a very, very small minorities of people is going to work. It is really really sad, I don't think I have words to describe what is going on in Libya.


It was very difficult to get any sences of how many people may have been heard during the protesting is  becoming more quiter now but we may understand it. But you get any sences of how many people killed?


It was very difficult because I don't think is there anybody who kind of enable (exactly) to, very difficult to qualitify.


It is relatively quite in Tripoli now, what do you think may happen next, is this possible to tell?


I think people would been urge not to go out more because simply the bound and you just facing machine gun. It is just no safety, no protection, no what so ever. And it is just so frighten, so fighting 


Who is this is doing the shooting?

[12:00]


It is very difficult to identify the nationality because there are a lot of question being raise about them being outsider.


Were it often people being in uniform or people in civilian cloth?


You see all sort, you are driving by people who often see armed people, some of them often build gray against and often the army some of time wear normal cloth, it was very difficult, just mix.


Is, is this a price worth-paying for freedom?


Yes, definitely. Yes, Because I think people go to the point and this is certainly talking from the protesting talking to the one I know very well saying we are dieing anyway, what is life meaning to you while you can't speak off. Either we change it or we just die. That's is.


I am not sure whether you can answer this but do you think you can return or you will return?


It depends on what is happening in Libya, I am quite optimistic, thing would  be better, thing would be different, but ... very difficult. 


Libyan doctor who just return from Tripoli. 


Libyan border with Tunisia aid officier has warning of un-folding crisis of a mass of humanity trying to flee the chaos. According to the U.N, during the day about two thousand people acrossing from Libya toTunisia every hour. Once in Tunisia, they have no where to go. It is believed after the twenty thousand are wating to cross from Libya side. 


[People name] is from the U.N. high commision for refugee who is speaking outside the Tunisia border and he described the situation.

[14:00]



It has been a humanatinian crisis, there has been more than seventy five thousand people cross the border to Tunisia side, there are report right now that other ten of thousand on other side are still waiting to pass in an extremely conjusted condition here.


And who is this that is crossing - the vast majority of people are Egyptian where working inside Libya, the first couple of aid we have seen mainly Tusinia coming back, there are other nationality such as Vietnamese, Chinese, people from Bangladesh and from other countries.


Mr. [Person name], the head of the U.N. SCA has been quoting to say he think the international excavation is needed, in this case, where would these people be taken?


There are people who is willing to go back home, just want to be back home. The Egyptian Government has been trying it best so far in order to response to this situation but let not forget that Egypt is also a must from revolution. It is now even has to deal with a bigger crisis in the border also with the Libyan and Egyption border, so it is so difficult for one country and one government to deal with it. That is why, it is extremely important for the international community to step in, and provide massive effort in order to bring these people back home. 


So what is this that you need then?


In the mean time, we are trying to set up a shelter, it is raining right now, the weather has becoming really cold and all of this people don't have to find a place to sleep, so far it has been the local community that has been providing support, but this local community can not cope with this number anymore. They has been extremely geneous to keep this border open but right now they are just having not be able to deal with it. That's why we are trying to set up now urgent a camp that can take up to about twenty thousand people in order to provide shelter until the operation excavation take places.


And do you feel?
