Control of Brega Remains Unclear

The transcript discusses NATO's informal advice to rebels in Europe to establish a defensible frontline. The rebels have implemented this advice and are now only allowing those with military training to join them. Their goal is to capture key oil towns, Brager and Raslan, under coalition airstrikes and gain a strategic advantage over Gaddafi's regime. The urgency of capturing oil terminals is heightened by ceasefire talks from Ben Ghazi, as control over these terminals would significantly benefit the rebellion.
