Colonel Muammar Gadafy's troops seized the strategic Libyan oil town of Brega today forcing rebels to retreat under a heavy bombardment while world powers considered imposing a no-fly zone.

Losing Brega and its refinery further limits rebel access to fuel after the insurgents were pushed out of Ras Lanuf earlier, another major oil terminal some 100 km to the west along the coast road where all of Libya's important towns are located.
